The Foundation for Science and Technology
The Foundation's purpose is to provide a neutral platform for debate of policy issues that have a science, engineering or technology element. The Foundation organises dinner/discussions and workshops on relevant issues when parliament is sitting.
The Foundation is overseen by a Council chaired by the Earl of Selborne GBE FRS. The Council appoints a Trustee Board from its members. The Trustee Board is accountable for all of the activities of the Foundation. The Foundation's Chief Executive Dr Dougal Goodman OBE FREng is responsible for delivering the strategy agreed by the Trustee Board with advice from the Council. The Foundation employs a team of sub-editors led by Simon Napper to produce the journal.
The Foundation also provides a support service to learned and professional societies. Around 140 societies subscribe to receive a Newsletter.
