SUMMARY:What starts to matter more as your business grows - Workshop 3/3
DESCRIPTION:How less obvious factors can shape outcomes\, sometimes more than strategy or effort alone and what founders need to pay attention to. \nAs businesses grow\, the pace of work\, pressure on decisions and everyday demands naturally start to shape how things get done. Over time\, these ways of working influence how decisions are made\, how accountability shows up and how work flows across the business\, often without anyone deliberately setting them up. This session explores how these less obvious factors can \nshape outcomes\, sometimes more than strategy or effort alone and what founders need to pay attention to as their business grows and becomes more complex. \nExpected Outcomes: \n· Gain insight into how everyday ways of working influence results over time. \n· Recognise how pressure\, pace\, and growth shape behaviour and decision-making. \n· Spot early signs that ways of working may be limiting progress. \n· Leave with a clearer sense of what to pay attention to as their business grows.

SUMMARY:Where your business might be leaking money (1/3)
DESCRIPTION:Where growing businesses can lose money through how work\,priorities and decisions play out in practice. \nAs a growing business\, money is almost always under pressure. Even when spending feels controlled\, value can still be lost in less obvious ways through delays\, rework\, unclear decisions\, duplicated effort and the way work flows day to day. This session explores where growing businesses can unknowingly lose money\, not through poor financial management\, but through how work\, priorities and decisions play out in practice. \nExpected Outcomes: \n· Recognise where time and effort may be translating into hidden cost. \n· Understand why money leakage is often structural rather than about effort. \n· Identify early signs of value being lost without visibility. \n· Leave with clearer questions about where money may be quietly leaking. \nJoin us – Hawking meeting room\, Future Space

SUMMARY:Exploring internationalisation\, export\, and trade
DESCRIPTION:A session to share top tips and best practices about doing business overseas \nAs part of rethinking our Innovation Forum\, we are developing some of our regular lunchtime sessions into Peer-to-Peer Themed Sessions – the idea is that we set up a group which is interested in specific topics to share best practice.

Most companies at Future Space work internationally and increasingly we are sourcing parts from other counties\, looking to enter international supply chains\, developing international partnerships and selling services and products to an international audience and looking at international investors. This session helps us to share what we have learnt in a complex trade environment and where to get information and help. \nDISCUSSION LEAD: Hao Ling-Lewis DBT

SUMMARY:Umbrella Project Launch Breakfast
DESCRIPTION:Join Toshiba and South Gloucestershire Council as they launch the second round of funding under the Umbrella Project Banner \nSouth Gloucestershire Council\, Toshiba Europe Limited\, and the West of England Mayoral Combined Authority are investing to revolutionise the research and development capacity of this extraordinary part of the West of England. \nIn 2021\, UMBRELLA\, one of the world’s largest programmable industrial IoT testbeds\, was installed in South Gloucestershire’s five innovation hubs: Bristol & Bath Science Park\, National Composites Centre at Emersons Green\, the University of the West of England\, Bristol Robotics Lab\, and Future Space. \nJoin us over breakfast for launch another round of funding available to businesses in the WEMCA region to utilise these amazing testbeds. \nAs part of the network\, more than 200 UMBRELLA IoT nodes have been deployed on public and private infrastructure (such as lamp posts)\, each with multiple radios (Bluetooth Low Energy\, Wifi\, LoRaWAN\, and 4G) and multiple sensors available based on the needs of the user for researchers and businesses to utilise. The node is a modular unit that can be adapted to monitor a range of variables such as air quality\, noise and light levels\, which can be used and customised for many different industries. Over 100 of these nodes support Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning at the edge of the network that allows for applications that are more responsive and secure than those that rely on the cloud alone. For more information see here UMBRELLA – About us \nAt this breakfast event\, we will hear from previous winners of the competition and there will be an announcement of a new grant for 2025. \nScheduled speakers \n\nAltered Carbon (Ali Rohafza)\nUWE Air Quality Project – (Ben Williams)\nSouth Gloucestershire Council / Toshiba – announcing the new competition with Q&A
