This event will offer inspiration and practical steps for SMEs to be more innovative with their products and processes.
Are you a start-up, scale-up or established SME, looking to supercharge your productivity and levels of innovation?
As part of the 26 events making up this year’s Leicestershire Innovation Festival, The MTC and Lloyd’s Bank invite you to hear from local SMEs on how they have achieved true innovation in the development of their products and services.
Come and meet your local HVMC Catapult, the Manufacturing Technology Centre, at our state-of-the-art facility in Coventry, for a guided tour of our workshops and collaboration spaces. Get inspired by two of the amazing Founders we are working with on award-winning products and take an opportunity to network with other local SMEs and ask any burning questions you may have.
