Simon Davenport, Innovation Manager at Wrexham Glyndwr, talks to Business News Wales about its approach to innovation.
Simon is responsible for working with businesses to drive knowledge transfer activities to create innovative products and services.
With more than 15 years of experience working in senior positions in product development, sales and marketing, primarily with the LEGO Group, Simon brings a wealth of experience and understanding of business needs.
Simon believes that, to drive sustainable growth, innovation should be embedded in a business and knowledge from the higher education is a key part of that journey.
Speaking about Glyndwr’s programme, he says:
“The programme gives a great opportunity for businesses to access outside knowledge and innovations that can improve a business in multiple areas.
“The expertise within the university can really test the opportunities that you have in regards to innovation and can offer guidance, support and knowledge to take you on that journey.”
