Cambridge Science Park

We’ve had an inspiring start to the Form the Future Annual Conference 2024 with words from Anne Bailey, Lisa King and Shaun Grady before diving into crucial conversations about places, spaces, people, and talent. ⭐ Highlights so far: 🏫 Places & Spaces Panellists included: Steve Thompson (Host), Form the Future CIC Professor Ross Renton, ARU Peterborough Dr Kathryn Chapman, Innovate Cambridge Jane Hutchins, Cambridge Science Park Owen Garling, Bennett Institute for Public Policy Sue Foxley, Bidwells 💡 Our expert panel discussed environments that foster growth and create opportunities for everyone. The Importance of Spaces: Modern workplaces prioritise visibility and collaboration, integrating science and innovation into everyday environments. Both physical settings and workplace culture are critical for success. Connecting with Young People: Aspirational infrastructure can inspire and engage the next generation. Accessible apprenticeships and equitable hiring processes are essential to create opportunities for all young people. "Don't do things to people, co-create with them." Professor Ross Renton Essential soft skills for the future: Understanding AI Relationship building Communication skills Buoyancy and perseverance 🫂 People & Talent Panellists: Pri Pinnaduwa FCIPD (Host), Form the Future and Artios Dr Nikos Savvas DL, Eastern Education Group Lynn Walters, Pure Executive Olu Orugboh, Cambridge Wireless Ltd & Black Talent & Leadership in STEM Christina Dumitriu Jackson, AstraZeneca 💡 The panel shared key strategies. Raising Awareness: Employers are eager to connect with young talent, but many young people remain unaware of the opportunities available in the region. Expanding Representation: Collaboration between education and workplaces is essential to equip young people with future-ready skills. Digital campaigns showcasing diverse career paths can reduce anxiety and inspire confidence. Sustainability & Opportunity: Young people are drawn to companies that align with their environmental and social values. Apprenticeships were highlighted as a critical tool, providing young people with opportunities to explore their strengths and build confidence in their career choices.
