Operating in a Changing World

Research Service Days is an annual conference for professionals in universities' & research institutes' research funding, innovation services and research administration. Others interested in the content of the conference are also welcome to join the event. In 2023, Research Service Days are organised in Aalto University's campus in Otaniemi, Espoo.

This year's theme Operating in a Changing World emphasizes the need for adaptability, resilience, and innovation as we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of research administration. Whether it's dealing with new technologies, the growing need for sustainability, or shifting funding priorities, universities and research institutes must be prepared to adapt and evolve.
