At InfoLab21 my role is to look at fostering relationships with businesses across the region; this includes SME's and Multinationals. I am keen to utilise InfoLab21 as a platform for Knowledge and Technology Transfer between the University and the wider business community drawing on the expertise that is based within the two academic departments. Prior to InfoLab21 I worked in a technology focussed solution provider as the sales manager.
