With harnessing the power of cutting-edge technology vital for success in today’s world, Dorset businesses are being urged to attend an event on 7 October.

Innovation Driving Growth will give business leaders a rundown of ‘oven ready’ solutions which can be adopted immediately to give them the edge over their competitors.

Creative digital industries organisation Silicon South (SiSo) is organising the event in partnership with Dorset Chamber and the Dorset Growth Hub, funded by BCP Council.

It is being held at the Centre VR in Bournemouth town centre and via Zoom, with tickets free of charge for all businesses in Dorset.

Ian Girling, chief executive of Dorset Chamber, said: “Innovation is absolutely vital for all businesses as we look to the future.

“Dorset Chamber is a strong supporter of the creative and digital industries, and is excited to be a partner for this event.”

The summit will focus on innovative ways to build growth and increase productivity, including short presentations, discussions and Q&A sessions with industry leaders and speakers.

SiSo director Anthony Story said: “There are digital solutions available now which have been tried and tested yet remain on the cutting-edge and are able to deliver considerable business benefits.

“Some business leaders may be unaware of the technology available or consider themselves non-technical but I would encourage them to attend this event to discover just how transformative technology can be.”
