Linda Edworthy is the Strategy Director from Tees Valley Unlimited, and will put the Public Sector View; Professor Cliff Hardcastle, Deputy Vice chancellor from Teesside University will put the Research Provider's View; Stephen Price, Investment Manager from North Star Ventures represents the Investment Sector, and Jon Mabbitt CEO of Applied Graphene Materials, a spin-out company from CPI, will put the Innovator's view. Jon Mabbitt will also give a short introductory presentation on his perception of innovation to start the proceedings. Questions from the floor will then be invited.

Middlesbrough College Bloodhound SSC Land Speed Record Car Event
From Monday 24th March through to Friday 4th April, Middlesbrough College will be hosting the Bloodhound SSC Land speed record car. This is a very exciting project to be involved with, and we’re thrilled to be hosting the team here at the College. As well as a full scale interactive replica of the record breaking car, we will be hosting workshops by the Bloodhound team for visiting schools. These will concentrate on the science and engineering is going into the project as a whole, including looking at the car itself, the desert living conditions in the Hakskeen Pan in South Africa, the computer science involved in the car and the manufacturing of the parts. We are looking for a range of volunteers to come in and help us run workshops for visiting schools and would like to invite anyone studying science, technology, engineering or mathematics subjects at University, or anyone working in one of these fields to come on board. We will be providing full training for any volunteers, in return for helping on one or more days the car is here. You will not be required to lead any workshops; you will be supporting the Bloodhound team with their delivery. You do not need to be a specialist in mechanical engineering to volunteer for this, anyone with an interest in STEM subjects
Training takes place for one day on the 19th, 20th and 21st March at Middlesbrough College and is free of charge. I’ve attached more information about the training and the Bloodhound visit, and please get in touch with me if you are interested in helping out. In addition to the two week period the car is based here, we will have access to kits and resources after this time, which you would be welcome to borrow to deliver activities yourself in the future.
Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions about this opportunity.
Kind regards,
Helen

An event that missed the last newsletter:-
The Insurance Institute of Middlesbrough is delighted to host a seminar entitled 'Construction Contracts and Policies of Insurance: what's covered and what's not'.
The aim of the seminar is to highlight the insuring obligations of parties (employer and contractor), contracting under JCT standard form contracts, focusing particularly on the types of insurance that design and build contractors are required to maintain. The seminar will also touch upon the types of insurance that other members of the project team, including professional designers and sub-contractors, are likely to have in place.
Takes place Nov 5th lunchtime at Stockton Campus -Durham University.

Hartlepool power station is on Tees Road, Hartlepool, TS25 2BZ. The easiest way to get there is to either cross the Tees, by the A19 flyover or the Newport bridge, and take the A1046 to Haverton Hill, and turn left onto the A178 just before the Transporter Bridge. OR to cross the Tees via the Transporter Bridge and turn right very soon onto the A178. Follow this road past RSPB Salthome, going straight on at an island, until you see the power station on your right, and it is signed at an island, where you turn right. Follow signs for the Visitor Centre, and park in the car park just beyond it.

Monday 16th March 7:30pm | Subject: - Industry and Whitby and Pickering Railway |
Venue: - St. Mary’s Centre, Corporation Road , Middlesbrough |
Speaker: - Mark Sissons Where traffic volumes were felt to justify it, the North Eastern Railway and its successors would provide a private siding, on agreed financial terms, to give direct rail access to the premises of a business. This talk looks at the locations between Rillington Junction and Whitby that had private railway sidings. Even in what appears to be a very rural area there were nearly 40 private sidings installed in the life of the railway between 1836 and 1965. |
