Summary

The INORMS 2010 conference theme – Managing for Impact: New Approaches to Research and Innovation Management – was embodied by eight thematic sessions, namely: Impact in the research institution; Impact on the research and innovation process; Impact on innovation; Impact on social and economic development; Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) for research and innovation excellence; Building a 21st century profession; Diversifying the funding base by internationalising the higher education research platform; and Developing the next generation of researchers

The congress was attended by over 400 delegates from 40 countries including the South Africa Minister for Science and Technology, Naledi Pandor MP.  It included numerous side meetings, including a one-day seminar which brought together representatives from funding bodies with African universities, to discuss best practice in the university-funder relationship. There was also a daily newsletter provided by Research, and a 'Question time with Funders' session, on the final day of the conference.  The conference finished off with a presentation inviting delegates to the next INORMS congress, which will be held in Denmark in 2012
