Forthcoming Events

Low Carbon KEEP Event
What are they? How do they work?
How could your organisation benefit?
What funding could you receive?

12th June 2012

The University of Essex, in collaboration with Anglia Ruskin University, would like to invite East of England businesses to a morning's event which will explore the successful Low Carbon KEEP Scheme.

Carole Randall (LC KEEP Programme Manager) will provide an overview of the scheme, and Jenny Young (Knowledge Exchange Manager) will outline some of the University of Essex's recent successes.

Tony Fisher (Senior Partner) and Joe Knox (LC LEEP Associate) will present a case study of how LC KEEP has been working for Fisher Jones Greenwood LLP. Their presentation will highlight how one organisation has benefitted from LC KEEP, as well as how the scheme is flexible enough to be implemented in a vast array of organisations. A networking lunch will close the event where you can talk through any project ideas you may have with members of our enterprise team.

Whilst the event is free to attend, please register your attendance at http://essexlowcarbonkeep.eventbrite.com

The event will be held 10.15am - 12.45pm on Tuesday 12th June at the Tony Rich Teaching Centre, Rooms TC26 & 27, University of Essex, Colchester.
