The aim of this meeting is to bring together UK based EIC researchers in person, to share ideas and discuss UK strategy and direction for EIC research. Additionally, this meeting will be an opportunity for UK based early career researchers to meet and gain a bigger picture view of the EIC project and the related work in the UK.

 

Venue Information: King's Manor is located 0.8 km away from the Railway station, just off Exhibition Square at York Art Gallery. This is roughly a 10-15 minute walk from the station.
