In this month’s Research Connect seminar, organized by the Department of Marketing, Strategy, and Innovation, we had the pleasure of hearing two fascinating research presentations. Associate Professor Elvira Bolat and a PGR student Chris Styles led discussions on two very interesting topics. 

Dr. Elvira’s presentation, Children and Young People’s Exposure to Gambling via Influencers: A Scoping Review and Content Analysis of Social Media Practices, explored the growing concern of youth exposure to gambling content on social media. Whereas Chris (who has just started his PhD journey) introduced his PhD topic about managing  the entrepreneurial journey more effectively. 

The seminar was well-attended by colleagues and sparked an engaging discussion on both topics. The lively research conversations even continued after the seminar at Dylan’s, where a few colleagues gathered for informal chats. 

Our next seminar of this monthly series will take place on 13th November 2024, 4-5pm in F108.
