As global research priorities increasingly align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), institutions face a critical challenge: how to effectively measure, track, and amplify their real-world impact. While intent and effort are abundant, the ability to translate research into actionable insights remains limited without the right data-driven approaches.
This session brings together academic and industry perspectives to explore how research intelligence can bridge this gap. We’ll examine how institutions can map their research to SDGs, uncover collaboration opportunities, benchmark performance, and make more informed strategic decisions.
Join us for an engaging discussion featuring a leading SDG-focused researcher from IIT Madras, alongside a research intelligence expert, as they share practical approaches to navigating the evolving landscape of impact-driven research
