For Thought 2025

Science, innovation, and society:
Working together for long-term change

Tuesday 28 January 2025, The Royal Society
14:00 – 17:30, followed by a reception

For Thought 2025 will focus on science and innovation serving society and delivering positive change.

The UK is looking to science, innovation, and technology to transform the systems that underpin our lives – from energy, to healthcare and services.

But change cannot be driven solely from the top down. We will be examining what leaders in our boardrooms, our higher education institutions and in government can do to foster agile and responsible innovation that responds to peoples’ values and expectations.

Our speakers and discussions will explore what it looks like for businesses, policymakers, scientists, and innovators to work in partnership with society.
