This talk is part of the ABE/ISSBA Virtual Summit - https://summit.issba.co.uk #issbasummit.

This session will introduce the University of Suffolk’s ‘We are Together with Business’ programme which has been designed to support our community recover from the current challenges posed by the COVID 19 pandemic. The University of Suffolk is a source of talent and is here to work with you and alongside you to support your response, recovery and resilience from the COVID 19 through our knowledge exchange offer. We are here to be of value to you and are currently working with industry and organisations across Suffolk in a number of ways to ensure that we engaged in a way that makes best use of our talents, resources and expertise as well being targeted at the specific needs of those around us.

Our links between industry, community, and the University have supported responses to the Covid-19 crisis so far through our students and staff within the School of Health and Wellbeing, the repurposing of our 3D printers to print visors and working with BT to distribute them to where they are needed, our School of EAST collaborating on the Tribe community app, and all of our apprentices and alumni who are working across our industries to support the emerging new normal. The Suffolk Business School team is introducing a free series of sessions on leadership and management and our CPD offer is building so that you can access training virtually while remote working and for when you are back in the workplace.

Our academic teams, students and business development managers are developing a number of additional activities for the rest of this calendar year and beyond to support your business recovery using the skills and expertise we have across a number of disciplines. This session will share the numerous ways in which the University can support our business community.
