Last month we ran an article about the Newcastle Academic Health Partners Industry Month. We have just heard that the events have been expanded to include an Invest Newcastle Showcase - Newcastle: A City of Opportunity on 01 March.

The organisers are also offering a fully-hosted invitation including two nights bed and breakfast, complimentary tickets to the events, talks and tours with key life science partners in the city and dinner with local businesses QuantuMDx and NewGene, and Newcastle University.

This incentive is targeted at those interested in locating in Newcastle Laboratory - and not currently in Newcastle/North East England. The organisers are happy to cover the costs of the above for one delegate per company. Click here for more information.
