Dorset LEP Business reposted this
Forty of our Dorset Ambassadors from local businesses and organisations joined us today at Hall & Woodhouse Ltd in Blandford Forum for the first of our Dorset Ambassador Business Breakfasts of 2025, but the final event of its kind from Dorset LEP as its planned cessation kicks in on 31 March. Following delivery of our 3-year plan and support from local authority partners, Dorset LEP Business support and Dorset Careers Hub will integrate into Dorset Council from 1 April 2025 – for these functions it will be business as usual. Which means this is not the last Dorset Ambassador business breakfast event, there are more planned for June and October 2025. Shelley Collins-Trevett, Head of Business Growth & Inward Investment at Dorset LEP says: “Today was a great opportunity for local businesses and partner organisations to come together to gain first-hand updates from Dorset LEP on our work over this, our last financial year ‘trading’ and to network together. Plus, it was also a chance to learn more about the long-standing family brewing and pub company, Hall & Woodhouse, from Chairperson Anthony Woodhouse. Thank you to H&W for a fascinating company update, day-making hospitality and tour of their state-of-the-art brew-house.” To find out more about our work with Dorset Business Ambassadors and their role click here: https://lnkd.in/edSc7k7G Shelley Collins-Trevett | Cecilia Bufton | Rebecca Davies | Vinita Nawathe | BCP Council | Dorset Council UK | Dorset LEP Business

This morning Dorset LEP visited Loop Technology with SWMAS LTD and Dorset business leaders to see one of the largest industrial robots in the UK. The gigantic FANUC M-2000iA 1700L is the strongest long-reach robot in the world, and is being used by automation and robotics specialists Loop Technology. It is part of the company's automated set up, which shapes pieces out of carbon fibre for use in aircraft wings. Loop featured on the BBC earlier this week - check out the film here https://lnkd.in/gvg9yv9B
It's always good value sharing best practice and hearing directly from the experts which, is exactly what SWMAS LTD did this morning through their Digital Technology for Productivity programme with #dorsetlep. Thanks to Alun Reece at Loop Technology Ltd for providing a fantastic tour and for taking the time to impart his knowledge and expertise regarding robotics & automation to the attending manufacturers. Through the Digital Technology programme, #swmas have been helping companies to increase their awareness and knowledge of various digital technologies and their relevance to improving productivity and competitiveness. The insight provided today will be highly valuable to companies considering investing in or expanding this technology. Thanks to: Shelley Collins-Trevett Andrew Martyn Ben Boughton-White Peter Bennet Max Osmond Nigel Pitman John L.

That said, it's really important stuff and we'll be covering the fundamentals at our upcoming event - ''Start-Up Funding Made Simple'' - an event hosted at Bournemouth University on the 3rd February from 5.30-8pm. What I can promise you though is that this will not be endless slides, interest rate conversations and jargon. We will be joined by three stars of our show who will tell you about how they funded their businesses... Benjamin Gibbons, founder of Circular11 who transform waste bound plastic into low-carbon fencing, furniture, and landscaping products for the construction and estates sectors. Cassidy Darby, owner of Cassidy's Beauty Academy & Pro Supply Store. Instagram link 👇 Andres Shoman from Boon Boats, developing a net zero electric concept boat.
