The Anglosphere was one of the surprise winners of the 2016 Referendum campaign.  As an explicitly stated concept it appeared early on in the campaign but soon faded from view.  But where it did play a part in the campaign was less as a unitary concept but more in its constituent parts: sometimes as an example to emulate and at other times as another layer of global interference to reject.

Wider engagement with European citizens, stakeholders and users is a crucial part of this emerging landscape. Regardless of what role you play in research and innovation in the future you will need to consider how societal actors can work with you to address societal challenges.
