Description: Business Link is organising two unique events to lead and inspire innovation across the North East.

This event is designed to provide an inspiring, challenging, thought provoking and highly interactive experience for established companies in the North East.

The event will have a new and unique format where delegates will be able to exchange ideas and share knowledge.

Delegates will be set the challenge of creating a new business idea or product, then develop these ready to launch, all in one day under one roof.

Small interactive workshops in the factory departments will provide an opportunity for companies to see how innovation can improve all key business issues including; R&D, HR, Enivronment, ICT, Sales & Marketing and Supply Chain.

Delegates will work in teams who will each be assigned a team leader to take them on a factory tour and facilitate their product development.

Several opportunities exist for your organisation to become involved in these unique events:
•Exhibition / Display area (free of charge)
