Digital Clinic
Thursday 22 October / 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm / Platform 2, Market House, Chapter Arts Centre, Cardiff
Project Outline
We`ve gathered together four key funders and business support agencies working in Wales to support fledgling ideas. This sessions aims to encourage anyone based in Wales with a good idea for a digital product or service to come forward and try to raise the kind of support they need to see their idea realised.
We`ve got 8 15 minutes `slots` to give away on a first come first served basis. Each person or collective will have just 15 minutes in a private setting with the experts.
You`ll need to pitch your idea in the briefest way (although we want this session to be informal so no power point but `get to the point` and speak from the heart) and the rest of the time will be given over to exploring avenues for developing your idea to fruition - the bell will ring after 15 minutes.
You can be an individual, pre-start or established business and of course you`ll need to be free on Thursday 22nd and flush enough to pay your own journey to Chapter, Cardiff to talk about your idea. All those present in the clinic have confidentiality disclosures so you can talk openly.
Advisors in the Digital Clinic are Evan Jones, Director, @Wales, Tony Guile, Project Manager, Wales Innovators Network, Jonathan Hughes, Business Relationship Manager from the Department for the Economy & Transport and Claire McArdle, 4iP Digital Commissioning Manager.
