I'm helping to organise a free event on 23rd April at the Advanced Manufacturing Park where any Sheffield business which thinks they've got a Carbon saving idea can get access to £70k of funding and help to develop it. Attending the event is completely free of charge and free of obligation, I just need to get the details out to as many businesses in Sheffield as I can - any suggestions?
For more details try the Yorkshire association of Business Angels website or Creative Sheffield as they are involved.

Ben,
Try Business Link, The Chambers of Commerce, Electronics Yorkshire, Connect Yorkshire, Creative Space (who manage the AMP on behalf of Yorkshire Forward...I think they have forwarded to me already), Oxford Innovation (who used to manage the AMP and now manage the digital campus in Barnsley); I'm sure they will contact their members.
PS; you will have, at least, one attendee...me! Hope nobody's planning to develop hydrogen fuel cell technologies for cars...they're going to be very disappointed :hihi:

This was a very good event, we've made two new contacts which will help us and our clients.
I didn't realise there was so much free money for low carbon projects in the region.
I'll definitely come to the next event; thanks Ben.
