Business Growth Through Innovation: The tools you need to make it a reality


For many businesses, innovation is the lifeblood for success.

Innovation can help a business not only find its place in a market, but also help them to lead it.

With the proliferation of new technologies rapidly gathering pace, companies that innovate find themselves future-proofed to the evolving technological and manufacturing landscape.

To help businesses equip themselves to fully utilise their innovative potential, USW (University of South Wales) Exchange will be holding the ‘Business Growth through Innovation’ seminar on the Tuesday 23rd July. The event is free to attend.

At the event three firms will be speaking, these include;

  • Celtic Innovation Solutions
    Developing innovative solutions for business challenges to stimulate growth
  • LimestoneGrey
    R&D tax credits
  • Darwin Gray
    Intellectual Property

What can be expected from the speakers?

Celtic Innovation Solutions has over 25 years’ experience transforming organisations and maximising their profits through innovation and development of disruptive technologies. Celtic Innovation are experts in accessing R&D grants.

For those already investing or looking to invest in R&D, LimestoneGrey will be providing an introduction into R&D tax credits and how businesses can claim back up to 33% of R&D expenditure. LimestoneGrey are an independent firm of Chartered tax advisers, who work exclusively in R&D tax credit claims.

Darwin Gray regularly act on behalf of clients seeking to exploit or protect their IP rights. During the event, they will be defining what intellectual property means and what protection innovative businesses might need.

Chris Wright, Manager at USW Exchange, commented:

“Supporting industry to access the varied skills and expertise at the University of South Wales has always been a key focus of ours at USW Exchange; our Engagement Team will be on hand to connect with attendees throughout the morning to explore new and exciting opportunities for collaborative innovation.”
