Impact Program Fall 2024

How do you increase your societal impact? What kind of strategy do you need? How do you present the story behind your research more clearly, with more emphasis on output and relevance? Who might be interested in your project or idea? And how do you approach media outlets, government agencies or companies? The Impact Program offers answers to all these questions and more. IXA developed the program for mid-career researchers of VU, Amsterdam UMC and UvA.
