Sir Richard Lambert (former director of the CBI) and current Chancellor of the University of Warwick, has recently spoken to the Times Higher Education Supplement about ‘thinking small to boost national productivity’ – encouraging collaborations in Universities with small to medium sized enterprises; a short article on this discussion is attached.
Please note that funding is available for the same or similar purpose as encouraged in the attached article, to Academics and Faculties of Staffordshire University via the Growth Accelerator Programme (up to £3,000). All enquiries can be made to Janet Mortezazadeh-Daragheh in Enterprise and Commercial Development.
