The second edition of Realise is another great publication and thanks must go to all that have supported it, including colleagues in Corpoarte Communications who have worked so hard on its production.
The KE Marketing team would urge colleagues in both academic and professional services roles to alert them to any interesting examples of knowledge exchange and collaborative, external out reach activity. The team are constantly on the look out for material which can be used to produce case studies – real examples of how our University is helping to make a difference.
