Background to 'IN THE MIX' The
concept behind ‘IN THE MIX’ is fairly simple in
nature. The business community is facing a range of challenges
and the environment within which we all work has changed
significantly.
Organisations
invited to the initial event on 13th May have an interest in
making our communities better – whether directly or indirectly.
In many instances there is significant overlap between the
objectives of our different organisations and the challenges we
are all looking to overcome – we are all in the mix!
Identifying this
overlap is important to help us work closer together, learn from
each other, and undertake projects that compliment the work of
others.
‘IN THE MIX’
will hopefully enable us to discuss the key themes currently on
the agenda on a regular basis. The first event in May 2011
focused on the following issues:
Welfare Reform
Digital Inclusion
Jobs and Training
Low Carbon Agenda
Regeneration
Financial Inclusion
