UEA Court

University of East Anglia’s Court takes place on an annual basis and we invite a range of individuals and partner organisations including many signatories of our Civic Charter engaging with us on projects and collaborations.

Court 2024 took place on the evening of Thursday 10 October 2024 in The Enterprise Centre, celebrating innovation across UEA.

We also launched our new multi-year fundraising campaign, Dare to Do Different, which focuses on philanthropy to support four key areas of UEA excellence: Climate, Health, Creative and Campus. We invite you to look at our campaign pages including our campaign launch video.

The event included an introduction from our Chancellor, Dame Jenny Abramsky, a presentation from our Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor David Maguire, and the annual report from our Treasurer, Simon George. Innovative work across UEA was then highlighted by presentations covering:

• Skills development for a healthier East Anglia

  • Professor Kristian Bowles, Dean and Professor of Haematology, Norwich Medical School

• UEA Innovation, Collaboration and Entrepreneurship

  • Dr Nicola Hancock, Associate Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Innovation

  • Dr Soraya Jones, Royal Society Entrepreneur in Residence

• The Power of Philanthropy

  • David Ellis, Director of Development, Alumni and Campaigns

The event concluded with networking over light refreshments. We were delighted to have this opportunity to network with many of our friends, supporters and partners from across the region.
