Innovation We are working with organisations across the North East LEP area
“to take back (!) our place as one of the leading ‘innovation hotspots’ in Europe.”
We are on our way, but definitely not happy where we are in terms of innovation
- We need more - innovation driven start-ups and Incubator programmes - spin-outs from Universities - collaboration between sectors
