We’re excited to announce Innovate Manchester – our upcoming collaboration with MIDAS and the Business Growth Hub kicking off this June. In a series of ambitious and participatory workshops taking place over the next few months, we’ll bring together leading thinkers, makers and entrepreneurs to discuss and prototype innovative solutions for some of the biggest challenges facing society and how we do business today.
The first theme in our series of events focuses on changing the way we produce and consume. Together we’ll explore:
– Sustainability as an Innovation Driver
– Cultural and behavioural change (internally and externally towards consumers, employees and other key-stakeholders)
– Designing Sustainable Products or Services
– Enabling Circular economy (eg.: Zero Waste, Reuse, Refill)
– Digital transformation and new technologies (eg.: manufacturing, advanced materials, augmented/virtual reality)
– Supply chain Innovation
– Business continuity (efficient team work, new business models, value chains, logistics)
