It was fantastic to welcome Innovate UK colleagues back to the city region yesterday, to build on our partnership as we work together to drive innovation-led economic growth. And a big thank you to Heap & Partners Ltd. for hosting a visit.
🚀 Improving productivity and unlocking SME growth in Liverpool City Region 🚀 Yesterday, Indro Mukerjee, CEO of Innovate UK, and Dean Cook, MBA, FRSB, Executive Director for Place at Innovate UK, visited Heap & Partners Ltd. with Steve Rotheram, Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, John Whaling, Lead Officer – Innovation and Commericalisation at Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, and Lisa Ashby-Dowling, Commercial Broker at Growth Platform. Founded in 1866, Heap & Partners Ltd in Birkenhead, is a designer & manufacturer of industrial valves and instrumentation equipment. With funding from the Innovate UK Launchpad programme, our support has enabled the business to improve its productivity through: 🔬 The development of a new range of advanced material hygienic diaphragms that can be commercially manufactured in the UK. 🦾 The enhancement of manufacturing quality and the simplification of complex supply chains. ♻️ Delivering cost savings and environmental benefits to many industries within the supply chain. Innovate UK is dedicated to amplifying local economic strengths by ensuring our products and services align with the needs of innovative businesses. The Innovate UK Launchpad Programme has been a key element in this joint mission with the Combined Authority. Our Launchpads enable us to locally target tailored support to SMEs’, giving many of them their first step onto the ladder of the wider Innovate UK support available. Liverpool City Region was the focus of a national pilot Launchpad on advanced manufacturing, with digital technologies and net zero outcomes. Co-created in partnership with the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority. The programme, opened in September 2022, has supported a cluster of small and medium sized enterprises and 37 of the most innovative received a share of £7.5 million to progress their ideas towards commercial success, boosting local economic growth. We would like to thank Andrew Will of Heap & Partners Ltd, and his team for their warm welcome and showcasing how the Launchpad programme can provide that boost to businesses wherever they are on their innovation journey. 🔗 Discover more about the Launchpad Programme: https://ow.ly/ijtH50SKIzO 🔗 Learn more about our partnership and Action Plan with Liverpool City Region, and more: https://ow.ly/vJC850SKIzM LYVA Labs | #BusinessInnovation #LCRinnovation #InnovationLaunchpads #Launchpads #EconomicGrowth
