FUNDING ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, 29 JULY 2010 The $64,000 question The Money! Charitable funds The Trust is re-organising its charitable funds to make more money available for Research and Development, recognising that research grants may become more challenging to obtain More flexibility should allow more and larger projects to be self-funded
SUMMARY ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, 29 JULY 2010 Research and Development has always been at the core of clinical activity at QVH We “punch well above our weight” in terms of the amount and quality of research that we are produce Major academic units see us as a very important partner in their research endeavours Research keeps our profile high nationally and internationally Its not a “nice to do” its for us a “must do”
