Promoting Regional Innovation

Southampton Science Park was pleased to attend Business Innovation South Expo: the first large-scale annual science, technology, engineering and business innovation event outside of London that specifically serves and supports the Southern region.

Across the South we have a strong record of research, innovation and development within the STEM sectors and recognised centres of excellence like Southampton Science Park, and yet there are few opportunities for players to come together at scale to showcase themselves, their products and services to potential customers and amongst peers.

The BIS Expo provided this platform, while giving business decision makers a chance to keep up to speed with the latest products and technology to reduce their costs and carbon footprint, enhance their offering and future proof their companies.

Jane Holt, Business Development Director, commented: “This was a powerful opportunity for Southampton Science Park to promote itself and its resident companies to the wider regional STEM community. The quality of attendees was high, and I personally thought it was an excellent platform to catch-up with old contacts and make new some ones. Certainly, the feedback that I’ve had from our tenants was that they benefited from the visibility and connections offered. My thanks go out to the organisers of the event.”
