Fesitval of Ideas event
Innovation Exchange is working to engage colleagues from across the East of England and beyond in a ‘Festival of Ideas’ innovation event taking place in January next year. The festival is being delivered in partnership with Improvement East. Key to the success of the event is identifying innovative third sector projects tackling worklessness – fledgling or longstanding – as potential participants in this event. The festival will give innovators the opportunity to:
- Meet key investors and commissioners working in this area and tell them about their work
- Learn about other innovation projects in this field
- Get the benefit of participants’ networks, expertise and advice
- Build the relationships that can help to develop and strengthen their work
