The SHAPE Catalyst is the first dedicated programme for helping Humanities, Arts and Social Science academics in discovering how to turn their research into impact at scale. The ARC Pathway is designed to guide researchers from the social sciences, arts and humanities on their commercialisation journey. The four stages build on each other, so we highly recommend that interested researchers start their journey with ARC Discover and move along the ARC Pathway to be best placed to apply to the next stages.
