Very sad to hear that Dick Nelson has passed away (at 94).

Dick was a huge influence on me & a great friend of SPRU.

In his 80s he would fly over on the red-eye (economy) & come straight in to talk to PhD students.

He was an absolute intellectual giant & one of the kindest people I've ever met.

UKRI is recruiting a Director to lead work on R&D and Place.

A great opportunity for an action-oriented leader who wants to tackle the many well-documented issues of the geography of R&D in the UK!

Mission-oriented #innovation promises grand solutions, yet too often ignores geography.
As @elvirauyarra.bsky.social, @larscoenen.bsky.social et al. stress, innovation isn’t placeless; it’s shaped by local #institutions.
A spatially blind approach risks failure & exclusion.
