While at the event, Dyllan was able to speak with event attendees about the work of the Materials Integrity Technology Transfer (MITT) project in delivering free access to globally respected, authoritative and impartial expert advice, knowhow and safety assurance through engineering, materials and joining technologies for small and medium sized businesses (SMEs) in the Tees Valley region.
He was also able to offer information on the Tees Valley Innovation Accelerator (TIA) initiative, which sees TWI, alongside Teesside University, provide funded innovation support for businesses in the Tees Valley region.
Speaking on the event, which saw 95 exhibitors and around 600 delegates in attendance, Dyllan said, “It was good to meet up with new and existing partners to discuss the MITT project and show how we can assist businesses in the Tees Valley area.”
We would like to thank NEPIC for hosting the event and allowing us to participate.
