Universities opening doors to business


Universities in South West Wales are teaming up to explain how they can help businesses in the region.
The University of Wales Trinity St David, the Swansea Metropolitan University and Swansea University have formed the Dragon Innovation Partnership.
They are staging an Open forum event at the Quinnell Room at Parc y Scarlets in Llanelli on Thursday, June 23 (10am-3pm).
A spokesman explained:
"Working in partnership with a university, organisations can gain access to a wide range of opportunities for growing business, including -
Funding
Training and consultancy
Access to state-of-the-art equipment and technology
Graduate placements
Knowledge and expertise
Research
And much more . . .
The three universities in the region (University of Wales Trinity St David, the Swansea Metropolitan University and Swansea University) are working through the Dragon Innovation Partnership and in collaboration with the Welsh Government to bring together all of their project, initiatives and funding opportunities under one roof to provide you with an opportunity to take your business to new heights.
The event will also give businesses the opportunity to promote their products and services to exhibitors and network with other local businesses.
The Welsh Assembly Government Regional Centre Service will also be able to give impartial information and guidance that is tailored to your particular business.
The service is delivered by a partnership of local authorities in South West Wales and provides support in three key areas - general business management, Human Resources/Equality and diversity, and environmental management.
There is no charge for attending the event. For more information and to pre-register, contact Nicola Powell on 01792 481163 or at nicola.powell@smu.ac.uk"

Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell the guest speaker at Llanelli Rotary Club

Image
Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell was the guest speaker at the weekly meeting of Llanelli Rotary Club held at the Stradey Park Hotel. Mr Wardell gave an illuminating address, weaving comparisons between his job as a politician and his late father's job as a Tumble barber. It was an amusing, highly-entertaining and thought-provoking address. Mr Wardell, now 69, won the Gower constituency seat in a Parliamentary by-election in 1982. The Labour MP held the seat until his retirement in 1997. He now works as a public affairs consultant in Wales. Mr Wardell's Parliamentary term was largely in opposition to Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Government. But his did make a significant contribution by being the youngest MP to chair the Welsh Affairs Select Committee. Mr Wardell recognised that in the 'fame stakes' he may have played second fiddle to his father, Jack, who was one of the UK's oldest barbers and who cut and styled hair for almost 80 years. Jac

Ammanford-based Lauryn Davey is making a major mark in the world of Welsh athletics. At just 16, she is the best all-round athlete of her age in Wales. She's chalking up Welsh championship victories and has been honoured by her club, the Carmarthen Harriers. Lauryn's been earmarked as a future international star, but knows the road to the big championships is difficult, demanding and expensive. Ammanford businessman and well-known comic entertainer Phil Evans has launched a campaign to get cash backers for Lauryn's athletics career. "Everyone in the area is hugely proud of her achievements in athletics to date," said Phil. "But we also want to see her go on and do bigger and better things.
