We held a really productive funding workshop last Friday (16th October) – facilitated by Rosemary Kay, there were a series of interesting short talks from:
- Dr Joanne Phoenix – Business Growth Manager – Business Growth Service
- Lisa Ashby – Liverpool City Region LEP
- Richard Harding & Bryan Griffiths from the North West Coast Academic Health Science Network (NWC AHSN)
- Shabs Rajasekharan – Smarter Futures EEIG – European Funding/ Impact Investment
- Cate Murphy – Regenerus – involvement in local European Programmes
- Max Zadow – Digital Creativity in Disability – Sharing our successful SBRI Experience
followed by one-to-one sessions where the audience picked the brains of the experts. People also took the opportunity to chat to new contacts, with Rosemary making brokering introductions.
Feedback has been excellent – everyone got a lot out of it, and have gone away with food for thought.
“Thanks for the invite, I found it really useful and certainly worthwhile”
“That was a really interesting morning, thank you”
“Another well organised event to talk to like-minded SMEs and very knowledgable funding experts”
“A really good mix of speaker topics”
“Thank you for running a fantastic event on Friday and facilitating introductions, and allowing me to attend. A very engaging and productive event!”
