FSB West Yorkshire Academia-Industry Network Event

Helping to build mutually beneficial partnerships by connecting academics and universities with small business owners

We all know that West Yorkshire has some great universities. What is less well known is that they are not just academic institutions but also offer a range of business support services. Universities want to help small businesses with research, innovation, training, funding and more.

Our aim is to help build mutually beneficial partnerships by connecting academics and universities with small business owners.

Join us for the next meeting of our FSB West Yorkshire Academia-Industry Network. This is part of a series of  regular monthly networking and learning events. Hosted by Dr Ruth Brown-Shepherd this event will feature small business owner, Joanne Clayton. Jo is the Founder and Managing Director of Data Bubble Consultancy. She will be joined by Emma Needham, Communications Manager who will be speaking on behalf of the Biorenewables Development Centre.

Programme:

  • Brief introduction (5 mins)
  • Industry Presentation (10 mins)
  • Academic Presentation (10 mins)
  • Q&A Panel Discussion (10 mins)
  • Networking Sessions (2 x 7 mins)
  • Closing Words (5 mins)
  • Industry Presentation – Jo’s talk will be focused on ‘Marketing for Small Businesses’
  • Academic Presentation – Emma’s talk will focus on ‘An Introduction to the Biorenewables Development Centre (BDC) Business Support’.
