Description:

Have you ever wondered if your idea for a new product could be the next big thing? Can you or your business afford not to keep ahead of its competitors? Do you have a business process that could just work better? The possibilities are endless and collaborating with academic partners brings significant business benefits. We have proof! Fast-Answers.com Ltd and Propeller Multimedia Ltd are both local companies that have taken the first step and have already been matched with an academic partner. They will be there to tell you how they did it and how the collaborations are helping their businesses! This is an informal event where over a breakfast roll you can learn how you and your business can access expert knowledge, funding, fresh ideas and research evidence to help your products, processes and services develop and grow.
