Here at Design Fusions we recently received an invitation to a great event which is happening in the Solent region during November.

This free event is called Collaborate2Innovate 2010 and aims to provide unique opportunities to seek free expert advice, interact with like-minded businesses and exchange knowledge about everything to do with collaborative innovation.

We were really pleased that such an exciting new event is happening so close to home and we wanted to do our bit to help publicise it.

The conference and exhibition will offer businesses, entrepreneurs and technology specialists the opportunity to forge strategic partnerships with other like-minded companies.

Attendees can expect to benefit from access to:

• The latest in innovative technology
• A wealth of business opportunities
• Like-minded collaboration partners
• The right investors
• Expert advice on business, financial, legal & technology matters

Throughout this day long event there will be a range of speakers including:

Roland Harwood – Co-founder of 100%Open
Robert Gilbert – Director of Boots Pharmaceuticals
Jonathan Williams – CEO of Marine South East
Stuart Wood – Manufacturing Specialist – BSc (Eng), CEng, FIMechE, FIoD, AFRIN
Ellie Runcie – Design Support Programmes, Design Council

At the time of writing there were already over 170 registered attendees so don’t hang around. Head over to the Collaborate2Innovate website to register if you want to attend and we’ll see you there.

We are looking forward to meeting lots of like minded businesses and individuals and hopefully there will be lots more events like this to come in our region.
