‌On 15 March 2018, Hannah Forbes of Sky TV in London delivered an engaging and interactive seminar on the highly topical theme of crowdfunding. Hannah explained how to use crowdfunding in various contexts and application domains, including product development.  She then solicited ideas for potential projects to be funded from the audience and stimulated ideas for crowdfunding campaigns. The event was attended by approximately 50 individuals from Industrial Design and other department of the University, as well as a few members of the public.  Following the award of a Certificate of Appreciation to the speaker by ID Society Vice President Charlotte Mears, the evening continued with a meet-the-speaker networking and socialising session in the Design Studio.
