NGI partnership update

We’ve had a busy couple of months for partner events, here are a couple of the highlights.

Last month we held our Business Leader’s Breakfast (for Gold and Silver partners) at Jesmond Dene House. The theme of the morning was talent attraction, retention and growth. We welcomed speakers from Nigel Wright Recruitment, Gateshead College, Mkodo, Ryder Architecture and Invest Newcastle. Over 40 people were in attendance at the breakfast which was also an opportunity to network and meet NGI staff.

Many thanks to everyone for coming along and to Jesmond Dene House for hosting. Keep an eye out for the next Business Leader’s Breakfast in October hosted by Ward Hadaway.

At the start of May we headed to the recently opened Mr Mulligan’s Space Golf for our Partner Social. We had a brilliant night of food, drink and some very competitive adventure space golf! We welcomed over 100 people from 23 partners to the event, with Trinity Mirror eventually coming out on top after a sudden death play-off.

A massive thank you to all the teams that came along and to Mr Mulligan’s for the hospitality.

Our next Partner Update is on Tuesday 5 June at 8am at Northern Design Centre where partners will be able to hear the latest news and updates on the Great Exhibition of the North. This will be a key opportunity for partners to find out how they can help to profile and promote the exciting programme to colleagues, customers and clients this summer.
