How to survive and thrive during a pandemic.
Sussex Innovation will be bringing you fortnightly webinars on a variety of subjects that are designed to help support you and your business during this difficult time. These events are being run in collaboration with Gatwick Diamond Business.
The University of Sussex is a leading research university with 75% of its research being classified as world leading or internationally excellent (2014 REF). How can businesses tap into this hub of knowledge, research and innovation and what are the benefits of doing so? This session will explore how working with universities can support the growth of your business and will include insights from experts including:
