Business Innovation Workshops
About this Event
The Business Innovation Workshops are run on three specific topics by leading academics from Aston University and Birmingham City University. The workshops are funded by the European Regional Development Fund and therefore free to the participating company. On completion of a minimum of 12 hours of sessions, delegates will receive a prestigious “Managing Innovation in Business” Certificate.
Envisioning For Growth Through Innovation
