If you wish to drive, please be aware that nearby parking is extremely limited and expensive. Instead, we would recommend travelling either by taxi or the Underground. The closest Underground station is Green Park, which is just a few minutes' walk away. Once on Albemarle Street, you can't miss the Royal Institution.
Please enter the Royal Institution by the main entrance. You must show your ticket or QR code at the door. Tickets are not available at the door. If you are interested in attending, please apply today.
There is no strict dress code, however, anything too casual (e.g. trainers/jeans) is discouraged.
There are attended cloakroom facilities on the ground floor. These facilities are used at your own risk.
Tea, coffee and water will be available throughout the event, and a variety of drinks and nibbles will be available during the networking event. There is no charge for refreshments.

While you attend Collaborate, we encourage you to take the opportunity to have a look around the Royal Institution. The event is spread out across much of the venue where many historical and important exhibits can be found. Don’t miss the Demonstration Room if you are a fan of the Christmas Lectures!
Based in Mayfair, London, the Royal Institution (RI) is both a fitting and functional venue for Collaborate 24. The institute dates back to 1799 as a venue to introduce emerging technologies and teach science to the general public.
For over two centuries, the building and laboratories have been home to ground-breaking science engagement, including the world-famous Christmas Lectures that are hosted in the Theatre. Scientists such as Michael Faraday have used the RI to present new discoveries that have helped shape the modern world, with the laboratories used in the discovery and isolation of no less than 10 elements.
Collaborate 24 is fortunate enough to occupy the entire Institute, including the Theatre, the Demonstration Room and the Conversation Room. Many scientific exhibits of historical importance can be seen up close throughout the venue.
The Royal Institution is a charitable trust and Collaborate 24 are pleased to support this valuable cause and encourage our guests to do the same.
The Collaborate Conference is managed by Origin Sciences Limited, company #04966495, registered office First Floor, 5 Fleet Place, London, EC4M 7RD.
