Hear about their latest innovation project and how sharing knowledge with academia made it possible.
Is your business looking to innovate, improve competitiveness, or bring new ideas to market?
In this session, we will learn about Soapworks' success story.
As the UK's premier manufacturer of soaps and cleansing bars for body, hair and face, Soapworks produces 50 million bars every year. They supply internationally leading brands, such as The Body Shop, around the world.
CEO Brian Cumming will tell us about their latest innovation project, which would not have been possible without collaboration with the University of Glasgow through a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP).
Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs) help businesses solve challenges, innovate, and develop new products and services. Speakers from the University's KTP Centre will share practical insights into how businesses can benefit from collaborating with academics and accessing specialist expertise.
Whether you're looking to tackle a specific business challenge, bring new ideas to market, or gain a competitive edge, this session is for you.
