The Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Manufacturing Networks form part of the East Midlands Manufacturing Network umbrella, which is led by East Midlands Chamber. It unites local manufacturers, enabling members to harness the cross-industry, business, engineering and manufacturing knowledge necessary to evolve and expand.

This is our summer network meeting, and we are pleased to be bringing together our Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Networks to collaborate and share common experiences and solutions at NTU's Brackenhurst Campus.

This meeting is open to all EMMN members from across all networks.

The agenda for the next meeting is below.
 
  • Opening address from the Chair - Mark Goldby.
  • Update from East Midlands Chamber - Rick Blackmore - Director of Policy
  • MAKE UK - Chris Corkan - Regional Director
  • Roundtable discussion
  • Introduction to NTU Brackenhurst led by Professor Andy Gill
  • Support Update - EMMN Manager - Debbie Rogers
  • Tour of Campus and time to enjoy the Wellness Walk at Brackenhurst
 

Overview

 
We have laid strong foundations to make this and our other local networks across the East Midlands a success. How?

By securing impressive host locations and by putting in place an experienced facilitation team.

We now need you to come along and tell us what is most important to you and your business. We want to develop a trust-based peer-to-peer environment among all members and shape the network to your needs – great or small!
