Business
The Institute is committed to working with, and representing the views of, businesses that depend on physics and physicists.
Through a range of events, projects and policy activities, the Institute engages with and supports physics-based businesses across the UK and Ireland.
This engagement allows the Institute to represent the interests of physics and physics-based businesses at the highest levels of governments and other agencies, and to better understand and promote the roles of physics and physicists across the economies of the UK and Ireland.
This section contains information on Business meetings and other events that might be of interest to members in business, and activities such as the IOP Innovation Awards and our reports on the importance of physics-based businesses to the economy.
