Halton Chamber of Commerce is launching a new network specifically aimed at businesses in the science and manufacturing sector.

The network, which has been set up in conjunction with some of Halton’s key science and manufacturing firms, aims to provide bespoke support to new and emerging companies as well as existing businesses within the sector, to encourage knowledge transfer, identify and address barriers to growth, and provide practical support to help them develop and grow.

The launch event will be hosted by Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LJLA) on March, 18, and speakers will include Robin Tudor, from LJLA, Samantha Westgate, from Perfectus Biomed, (a member of the steering group), and Malcolm Evans of UK Manufacturing Accelerator.
