The process of translating research outcomes into commercially viable products can be challenging, involving the need to overcome many technical and non-technical barriers. The Society helps scientists on this journey by providing grants and funding, offering training and mentoring and bringing together experts in academia and industry through our meetings and conferences. These opportunities not only give outstanding researchers the freedom to pursue excellent science, but also to benefit industry, the economy and society through the translation of research. This video showcases three researchers who have used and built on the funding awarded by the Society to translate their research from academia to industry. Dr Krzysztof Koziol, University of Cambridge: Getting it out there: leading the charge in the advanced materials revolution Professor Cathryn Mitchell, University of Bath: Who will save us from space storms Dr Robert Young, Lancaster University: Quantum security solutions: security guaranteed by the laws of physics
