INNOVATION OPTIMISER – A GROWING
COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE
To optimise your start-up's chances we work
with a range of carefully selected partners
and associates. All of which bring specialist
expertise, local knowledge and stakeholder
benefit and insight to support our activities
and develop our campus based innovators.
You will benefit from the accumulated
knowledge of many of our partners
and associates who include previous
spin-out founders and creative teams and
connections, alongside scores of companies
that have been through our spin-out process
or our Innovation Centres over the years.
Many of these have made a commitment to
'put something back' for previous support
received and feature as mentors, coaches,
speakers, contributors and potential
collaborators. Here are some of them...
