Committed to supporting more effective and robust industrial innovation policymaking, The Babbage Forum reflects a growing concern among practitioners and academics that at a time of increasing complexity and challenge, systematic policymaking in science, technology and innovation leaves much to be desired. Bringing together senior practitioners with leading international academic figures from the disciplines of engineering, operations and economics; The Babbage Forum combines a multidisciplinary approach with an examination of international practice.
