The 2019 conference aims to progress work towards the building of a global research agenda for Transformative Innovation, an initiative instigated in 2018 by the inter-network dialogue, represented by four research networks: Eu-SPRI, Globelics, Sustainability Transitions Research Network (STRN) and the Transformative Innovation Policy Consortium (TIPC). With over 60 different projects represented in the conference, it is envisaged as a unique space for engagement between academics, research funders and policymakers. Acknowledging a diversity of approaches of understanding and enacting Transformative Innovation, the conference aims to find some coherence and complementarities among them. The programme has been designed to maximise the time available for interactions and networking beyond participants’ usual networks and support the creation of new contacts and collaborations. The TIPC website event page is offered as a temporary space to build a resource pool for projects and people working towards the transformative innovation policy agenda. It will feature project overviews (posters), abstracts and biographies with links to project and personal websites – http://tipconsortium.net/event/tipc-conference-2019/
