Gabriela Medero

Professor Gabriela Medero has been appointed as Associate Principal (Enterprise) a strategic new role which will help to drive engagement with entrepreneurial talent as part of the successful delivery of the University’s Shaping Tomorrow Together strategy.

Advancing emerging technologies, building interdisciplinary partnerships and commercialising research are key strands of Heriot-Watt’s long history of promoting entrepreneurialism. And its global reach and close collaboration with industry and business means that it is consistently at the forefront of academic endeavour making a real-world impact on our society. I relish the challenge of supporting both academic and student entrepreneurs to realise their creative potential and using my personal experience to guide them as they pursue their own ambitious paths.
