Free support to enable innovation
By Steve Upcraft Enabling Innovation Director, The University of Nottingham
Small businesses in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire are now able to access free innovation support through a new programme being run by The University of Derby, Nottingham Trent University and The University of Nottingham. The aim of the programme,
called Enabling Innovation, is to stimulate research and innovation within small and medium-sized businesses in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. The programme provides
help for businesses in sectors such as manufacturing, materials engineering, computing and data, aerospace, food and drink, chemistry and satellite navigation – offering unprecedented access to university expertise and graduate talent. The three universities will be
offering a wide range of services for businesses through Enabling Innovation, including:
· In-depth support from academic experts.
· Workshop programmes designed to help businesses to innovate, explore new ideas and unlock their growth potential.
· Leadership and management development, including mentoring.
· Support for businesses to take on graduates via placement opportunities, allowing them to explore the benefits of employing graduates.
The project has been funded via the D2N2 Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), using funds secured by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
