Want to strengthen your Employer Engagement and improve your Outreach Activities?

Then we have a tried and tested recipe for you.

Creating an Innovation Hub will offer you the opportunity to fast-track income generation through new partnerships whilst enhancing your curriculum offer and extending your outreach activities.
Establishing an Innovation Hub will also strengthen your competitive positioning and build your reputation as an innovation leader. It follows a three-step process:

Explore and Inform: This process comprises of an interactive session with members of the senior leadership and aims to agree the vision for innovation, analyse the organisational readiness for innovation (processes, mind-sets and priorities) and recommend actions to develop innovation support structures.
Innovation Hub Development Workshops: Four facilitated workshops comprising of Ideation, Packaging and Positioning, Theming and Branding and Road-Mapping will be undertaken to agree the value propositions for different services, markets and customers.
Go-to-Market Plan: Create an integrated marketing communications plan for the launch of the Innovation Hub.

NEF will work with you to identify and agree priorities and success measures so that you can validate return on investment from your Hub activities.
Successful Innovation Hubs can also apply for the Investor in Innovations Award, the only Standard in innovation, recognised by business, industry, education and government.
