Newcastle Science City launch Informal Fridays in Sunderland !

Newcastle Science City and the University of Sunderland have launched Informal Fridays following the huge success of similar events in Newcastle with more than 100 entrepreneurs and business people meeting every month to collaborate and discuss innovation in a relaxed environment. The events are specifically targeted at the science community, including entrepreneurs, designers, scientists and financiers.

It's always interesting to hear what businesses are up to - a conversation might provide a spark of inspiration for a new research interest or you might spot somebody that would make a valuable guest presenter in lectures.

Go along and enjoy a cup of coffee and a croissant whilst networking with regional businesses and entrepreneurs:
Sciences Complex, City Campus, the University of Sunderland. Time: 08:00 am – 10:00 am, on:

•  11th November 2011
•  9th December 2011
•  13th January 2012
• 10th February 2012
