GROW
Curious, but not sure where to start? Come to an event. That's all it takes.
Programme overview
GROW, delivered by MPLS Enterprise, is a series of events for the Oxford STEMM community: postgraduates and DPhils, researchers, staff and alumni.
Each session is a taster, with a panel or a single speaker and time for questions. Topics aren't always about starting a venture. Leadership, negotiation and AI have all featured, because the aim is to open a door rather than teach a syllabus.
It's for anyone curious about innovation, entrepreneurship, impact or leadership who wants a low-commitment way to explore those topics and meet others doing the same.
Next event: Tuesday 10 November 2026 · register by 5 November
