About this Event

Beyond the Bench: From Lab to Sales

Are you a researcher or student wondering what life looks like outside of academia? Curious about how your scientific background could open doors in the commercial world?

Join us for an honest, unfiltered panel discussion featuring ex-lab researchers who have successfully made the transition into sales. They know what it's like to be in your shoes — and they're here to share exactly how they navigated the leap from the lab to a career in the commercial world.

Whether you're actively exploring a career change or simply curious about what's possible, this is your chance to hear real stories, ask the questions you've always wanted to ask, and connect with others on the same journey.

What to expect:

  • A structured panel discussion with four key questions covering the transition from academia into sales
  • Live audience Q&A — submit your questions anonymously via QR code on the night
  • Networking over food and drinks
  • A welcoming space for researchers and students at any stage of their career thinking
