BMRI Annual Conference 2026

This year’s theme, Creativity and Innovation in the Digital Age, focuses on how emerging technologies, digital transformation, and interdisciplinary thinking are reshaping research, industry, and practice. The conference provides a platform for academics, researchers, and industry professionals to present and discuss their work, exchange ideas, and build meaningful collaborations.

The programme will feature guest speakers from both academia and industry, including contributors from Leeds University, as well as experts from the luxury fashion and film sectors, offering diverse perspectives on innovation in practice.
