Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Dr Denise Xifara is co-founder of Nupinion, a startup dedicated to improving how people engage with news. Denise is passionate about combining machine learning and big data to gain insight from global news content. In this talk she will narrate her journey from her DPhil in statistical genetics at Oxford to entrepreneurship in a radically different field, covering the challenges involved, common pitfalls as well as opportunities. Borrowing from her own experiences and from well established methods for innovation, the talk promises to offer practical advice on how anyone regardless of background can start building their own business.
Following Denise’s talk, we will introduce some other key players from across the Oxford ecosystem who can support you in developing your ideas and skills as a budding entrepreneur and offer you the chance over lunch to network and also to sign up for short consultation sessions with these players.
