Hi everyone, and welcome to another edition of our newsletter.
This month, I had the honour of being on the panel of a Question Time event during Humber Business Week, and the mood in the audience and on the panel was one of positivity, with everyone agreeing that the North of England’s time is now. With opportunities such as devolution, Yorkshire Energy Park and the Humber Freeport, it’s easy to be optimistic about the future.
I also bumped into several of you at The Business Day at Bridlington Spa – hello to everyone who came over for a natter, it was great to catch up! Thanks also to those intrepid folk who joined our breakout session on what the future will bring for the built environment – there was a really lively discussion in the room, and it was fascinating to see how your organisations have been adapting to the changing demands of sustainability and the needs of your workforce.
Read on for some examples of what we’ve been working on recently, and if you’d like to know more about anything we talk about, please get in touch with us!
Best wishes, Jo
