About this blog
This blog reports on developments in business innovation across the East Midlands. It covers the programmes, research and practical advice that Nottingham Trent University, the University of Derby and the University of Nottingham make available to businesses, drawing on work backed by EU funding.
Articles are written for owners, managers and staff who want to understand how innovation support works and how to use it well.
What we publish

Each article will state its subject clearly, so readers can quickly find the topics that matter to their business.
