Focused Funding Webinar Series 2026
In 2026, in order to directly support CCS deployment, the UKCCSRC’s Focused Funding Call invited applications for rapid targeted research projects. Seven projects were awarded funding and they’ll be sharing their learning and results in this webinar series.
If you’re already on our ongoing web series attendee list, then you should automatically receive a calendar invitation for all four webinars. If you’re not an existing web series attendee, then please sign up below (for the whole series or individual webinars).
