Why attend

While government funding for scientific discovery is on the rise, there is a heightened demand for researchers to prove their value outside the university bubble. Now more than ever, public bodies and organizations must provide clear evidence of how new findings are shaping legislation, driving commercial innovation, and improving the lives of citizens.

During Science at the Shine Dome, participants will dive into how integrated data tools—including resources like Altmetric and Dimensions—can map the trajectory of a project from its initial grant to its real-world consequences. These sessions will highlight how modern analytics can bridge the gap between financial investment and tangible community benefits.

If you’re attending, we invite you to connect with Anthony Dona, our Senior Director for Government & Funders – APAC, to discuss how institutions can better understand research influence and policy engagement using integrated research intelligence.
