Take a look at the #VitaeCon2023 agenda

We look forward to welcoming you to our annual flagship event, the Vitae International Researcher Development Conference 2023 (#VitaeCon2023) for all those with an interest in the policy and practice of global researcher development. 

Following the appetite for in-person meetings expressed at last year’s face-to face event, as well as the steadfast popularity of the accessible online element, we will again be offering a multiformat conference across four days. With increased capacity and an expanded programme, the face-to-face element will take place at a new venue for Vitae, the Science and Industry Museum Manchester, UK. This year we will also be hosting the inaugural Vitae Impact, Culture and Engagement Awards ceremony, which will take place during the Gala dinner on Monday 25 September.

Dates:

Online Wednesday 6 September and Thursday 7 September 2023.

In person Monday 25 September and Tuesday 26 September 2023.

Evening gala dinner with drinks reception Monday 25 September 2023. 

#VitaeCon2023 tickets are now available for the following options:

• Online only ticket – 6-7 September 2023
• In person ticket (including Gala dinner) –  25-26 September 2023
• Combined online and in person ticket (including Gala dinner) - 6-7 September and 25-26 September
