Reflecting on the Innovation Alliance for the West Midlands Innovation Policy & Practice event ‘Innovation Policy & Practice – A consultation on the West Midlands response to the National Innovation Strategy’:

“I really loved engaging with a wide variety of different people around a topic that unites us to drive business growth and prosperity across the region. It was great to have a business focussed discussion with a range of perspectives.  I wanted to congratulate the Innovation Alliance team for pulling it together, for securing the speakers and for bringing new voices to the discussion.  I value it hugely.”

Joanna Birch, Director for Innovation Enterprise and Employability, Birmingham City University
