Grantham Institute Climate Research Showcase 2025 event image, white text on blue background

Join us on Wednesday, 22 January 2025 for the Grantham Institute’s inaugural Climate Research Showcase, where we will bring together our research community to exchange ideas, foster collaboration and support effective action on climate change.

From an all-day exhibition and peer-led workshops to seminars and a Special Lecture, the Climate Research Showcase is a space for dialogue and discovery. Participants will have the opportunity to profile their work, engage with renowned climate scientists and connect with the Imperial climate research community though activities designed to spark curiosity and collaboration.

By fostering connections and discussions around pressing environmental challenges, the Climate Research Showcase underscores the Grantham Institute’s commitment to multidisciplinary solutions and our role as a leading hub for climate research and innovation.

Submissions for contributing to the Climate Research Showcase are now closed.
