This will be the first of what we hope will become a series of evening meetings. The focus of the evening will be discussion of an urgent issue facing the research industry today: 'Do we need research now that we have big data?’ In the chair will be Brian Jacobs who will be joined by other industry experts. Audience participation will be very much encouraged. We look forward to seeing you there and, if you can, please bring a guest who might be interested in joining the Network, including those whose work or other commitments make it difficult to attend our lunchtime gatherings.
