Your May update - Sussex Innovation

May: spring is in the air

It's been a sunny, bank holiday-filled month, so you'd be forgiven for thinking that May might have been quieter than usual. But spring is a season of renewal at Sussex Innovation.

We've been hard at work launching our enterprise programme for academic researchers at the University of Sussex, supporting student entrepreneurs (more on which below), and kicking off a new regular programme of networking breakfasts for our community.

As we put the finishing touches on our summer events programme, let us know what networking opportunities and knowledge-sharing sessions you'd like to see.
