A team from School of Tourism, Bournemouth University, exhibited at the two day Hotel and Catering Expo at Bournemouth International Centre recently.
This impressive event brings people and organisations together to find solutions for sourcing skills, products and services; and business networking, specifically serving the hospitality sector.
Claire Main, Business Engagement Consultant for the School of Tourism commented: “In addition to networking with clients, the event offers an opportunity to show businesses that Bournemouth University is a multi-faceted organisation, offering a wealth of business expertise that companies can make use of. This includes bespoke accredited courses and other cost effective services to gain a competitive edge be it through consultancy, student placements or funded projects. The University is currently working on a variety of commercial projects with local, national and international organisations. The School’s latest client is Corinthia, the international chain of luxury hotels.”
At the event, food businesses were also encouraged to sign up for the Festival of Learning, a series of community events taking place in June (9th to 15th). Sign up here for updates on the events http://microsites.bournemouth.ac.uk/fol/sign-up/
