We are delighted to invite you to a post-conference gathering of the ARMA Research Development Special Interest Group (SIG), where we will come together to reflect on key themes, insights and conversations emerging from the ARMA Conference 2026, held in Harrogate on 16–18 June.

This informal online session is open to everyone—whether you attended the conference or not. It will provide an opportunity to hear directly from colleagues who participated, share reflections on sessions that resonated, discuss emerging trends in research management and administration, and continue some of the conversations started during our in-person SIG meeting.

We are also looking for volunteers who attended the conference to give a short, informal 10-minute overview of their key takeaways to help spark discussion. Whether your insights relate to research culture, funding, innovation, leadership, research impact or professional development, we would love to hear from you.

This is intended as a relaxed and interactive community session, offering a space to exchange ideas, connect with colleagues, and reflect collectively on what we learned from ARMA 2026.

Interested in sharing your reflections?

Please contact a.s.kurt-dickson@lse.ac.uk if you would like to give a short presentation. Alternatively, simply join the session and contribute to the discussion.

We look forward to seeing you online and continuing the conversation.
