A business conference focussing on supporting growth and resilience within the advanced manufacturing sector will be held at Masson Mills in Matlock Bath on Thursday 16 April from 8.30am.
The conference will also mark the launch of the second year of the Derbyshire Makes ‘STEAM into ACTION’ project, which aims to work with Derbyshire schools to develop Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) skills in pupils.
Delegates will benefit from networking opportunities and access to a range of support networks and apprenticeship providers.
