The Innovation Retreat is designed to help you develop plans for prototyping new products and services and accelerate their launch.
Delivered across four days, they include a two-day residential stay.
We will work with you in a series of short, impactful and interactive workshops, helping to reduce the risk of taking an innovation to market.
And we will help you identify opportunities to access support, funding and collaboration.
Each retreat includes a half-day introduction on our campus, followed by a two-day residential at a four-star hotel in Greater Manchester. The final session is a half-day of action planning with our experts at Manchester Met.
Who is The Innovation Retreat for?
The programme is aimed at small to medium-sized businesses based in Greater Manchester.
You should already be working on an innovation in:
- sustainable advanced materials
- artificial intelligence, data and advanced computing
- diagnostics and genomics
Each retreat is limited to 15 business leaders to ensure you get individual support from our experts.
Costs
The Innovation Retreat is funded by the Shared Prosperity Fund (SPF), through the Growth Company. We will not charge you to take part in the workshops or other sessions.
