NOCCI - 9 days and counting!

[James]

I know this is not a Refresh Teesside event but I thought that some of
you guys might be interested in this. The aims and objectives are
interesting and some are very similar to Refresh Teesside. I will be
going along to this event to see what its all about so if your going
let me know and make sure to say hello!

I am not going to make a habit of advertising other events on here but
as its local and is pushing the same aims of Refresh Teesside I am
interested in how we can work together.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Calling all creatives and cultural practicioners, career orientated
graduates, musicians, dj's, photographers, web designers, product
designers etc

Spread the word amongst your creative circle of friends and let
everyone know about NOCCI, our aim is very simple: to get
Middlesbrough's (and the surrounding areas) working creatively
together, sharing knowledge, helping each other out, creating
opportunities, developing working friendships and creating a very
creative Middlesbrough. If your not from Middlesbrough your still very
welcome...

Please let us know if your coming by clicking the attending box on the
event listing (on the right hand side of the group page)

One last thing, NOCCI middlesbrough has three very clear, simple rules
and are as follows:

1: No Politics, its not really how we roll!
2: No business dress, it's very casual, shirts are cool, but no
blazers and ties,
3: No Negativity - keep it positive

NOCCI - Network of Creative & Cultural Individuals Uncle Alberts -
Albert Road, Middlesbrough Thursday 28th May - starts 6pm sharp -
finishes 8pm ish

PS. Don't forget your promotional materials, showreels, business
cards, brochures, or anything which lets people know what you
generally do! (use your imagination)

PPS. I hope you can all make it, as this really will help develop the
creative and cultural working environment in Middlesbrough and beyond,
and hopefully we can all share in the benefits

Teesside University would like to invite you to our Business Showcase

The showcase, through interactive presentations, exhibition stands and
campus tours will introduce you to numerous areas of expertise. These
will include:

• Leadership & Management through Drama
• Video Journalism
• Workforce Development

A team of experts will be on hand to describe how we can assist both
creative and non-creative businesses to succeed, from injecting new
energy and creativity into business practices through to bespoke staff
training solutions and development of innovative new products or
services.

A taste of some of the innovative work Teesside has been doing with
businesses will be provided with an overview of the ground-breaking
video journalism training offered not only to the Evening Gazette and
Newsquest North East but also to a host of the region's PR and ad
agencies.

Attendees will also find out more on how we have used the government-
funded Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) scheme to develop
innovative products with point of sale specialists the Simpson Group,
and the exciting ways in which performance and theatrical
methodologies can be applied in the arena of Leadership & Management
skills development.

Past breakfast events have proved very popular with local business
