The Knowledge Quarter Launches The Future of Knowledge Conference to Celebrate 10 Years of Innovation
The Knowledge Quarter (KQ) launches its flagship event, The Future of Knowledge: From Vision to Impact, marking the 10th anniversary of the innovation district.
Ten years ago, a group of academic, cultural, and research institutions clustered around the British Library in King’s Cross came together with a shared vision: to create a community that connects knowledge, creativity, and enterprise.
From those first conversations, a unique partnership was created, and the Knowledge Quarter was born.
A decade on, this partnership has flourished into one of the world’s most dynamic innovation districts. Today, the Knowledge Quarter produces cutting-edge research that powers the UK economy.
To mark this milestone, the Knowledge Quarter is proud to announce the return of its flagship conference: The Future of Knowledge: From Vision to Impact.
Taking place on Tuesday, 25 November, 2025, at Vision Hall, Camden, the event will celebrate 10 years of collaboration, connection and innovation.
The conference will showcase the extraordinary diversity of the district and beyond – bringing together researchers and policymakers, artists and educators, institutions and entrepreneurs – to explore how interdisciplinary ideas can address some of the biggest challenges facing London and the wider UK.
This year’s programme promises thought-provoking panels, dynamic debates, and new opportunities for connection across sectors. It will be a space where global leaders and local innovators can come together to share insights, build new partnerships, and imagine the next decade of knowledge in action.
