The Bayes Centre Forum: May 2021

The Bayes Centre is delighted to announce the launch of its new series of curated talks, focussing on some of its most exciting projects.

Starting on the 19th May 2021, the first forum will explore the work done by the Bayes Centre across three key areas, education, entrepreneurship and the Bayes Centre's Investor Readiness Programme, EIE2021.
