About the event
Get ready to dive deep into the latest trends and innovations at the UKSPA Spring Conference 2026 - it's where ideas come to life!
UKSPA’s members and stakeholders will gather at Glasgow City Innovation District on Thursday 5th and Fruday 6th March for the UKSPA Spring Conference.
UKSPA membership and wider community – encompassing clusters across the UK, science, technology and research parks, and innovation districts such as Glasgow City – represent a critical national network and infrastructure that underpins economic sustainability and growth across all four nations.
The Spring Conference will highlight the essential role members and partners play within their communities, the tangible value they deliver in fostering innovation and achieving social impact, and their contribution to driving inclusive, place-based growth. It will provide a platform for delegates to strengthen existing partnerships and form new relationships – now more important than ever as we collectively address challenges at a local, national, and international levels.
Delegates will also have the opportunity to tour the Technology and Innovation Centre, a state-of-the-art, world-class research facility that is transforming collaboration between academia, industry and the public sector.
