We all know that West Yorkshire has some great universities. What is less well known is that they are not just academic institutions but also offer a range of business support services. Universities want to help small businesses with research, innovation, training, funding and more.
Our aim is to help build mutually beneficial partnerships by connecting academics and universities with small business owners.
Join us for the next meeting of our FSB West Yorkshire Academia-Industry Network. This is part of a series of regular monthly networking and learning events hosted by FSB volunteers. This event will be hosted by Small Business Owner and FSB Member, Audrey Zannese.
