The University of Southampton, in association with the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH), will be hosting an early evening event for companies across the region to explore how they can access specialist expertise to boost their business.
Come and hear local businesses describe the multitude of benefits which collaboration with a University partner through a KTP project can bring.
The Knowledge Transfer Partnerships programme is a UK-wide, government funded scheme that helps businesses and organisations to improve their competitiveness and productivity through the use of the knowledge, technology and skills that reside within universities.
Keynote speeches will be given by Professor Simon Cox (Associate Dean for Enterprise, Faculty of Engineering at the University of Southampton) and Dr Paul Naylor (Senior KTP Advisor for the Technology Strategy Board) prior to a number of presentations on completed KTP projects from the region.
There will be ample time for networking and refreshments and a hot dinner will be provided. If you would like to attend, please register here.
