ISSUES SUCCESS “I congratulate the organisers of Brave New City. Instead of presenting detailed data and findings from research (in a typically turgid way), they situated this within a larger context and this is very useful for professionals…the lively approach by this event is much more effective. A useful way to engage with professionals and policy makers! Well done. “ “I loved the format of the event! It was fun and different, which made it engaging. I was very impressed that the speakers For this type of thing, it was the best designed event I've been to.”
ISSUES SUCCESS “I really like the search engine and. For the work I have been involved with it seems to pick up the relevant bits immediately and ranks them well” “I regularly use the Gateway to inform myself about how the consortia in the SUE programme cover issues of interest to me and my clients.”
