The Humber Spotlight

Welcome to the latest edition of the Humber Spotlight. I hope you’ve all had an amazing summer, spending quality time with family and friends.

As we head full speed into September, we have plenty going on here at Future Humber for you to get involved in.

First up, we have our Bondholders Talent + event ‘Innovative Thinking’ taking place on Thursday 21st September at the Edge Hub – this event will inspire you to unlock your creativity, using your imagination to break the norm and take new approaches, no matter your role or the industry in which you work.

Next, we’ll be heading over to Grimsby on Tuesday 26th September for our Made Great In Grimsby Industry Insight. An exclusive behind the scenes experience as we explore Grimsby’s world class seafood processing cluster, including a seafood lunch and interactive tour.

Working in partnership with Hull & East Yorkshire Mind, we will be delivering our workplace wellbeing event on World Mental Health Day, Tuesday 10th October at the MKM Stadium. Whether you're an individual looking to enhance your own mental health at work or a business leader striving to create a supportive workplace, this event is for you.

The Waterline Summit is back for 2023, taking place between 13th – 15th November at Aura Innovation Centre. We are currently looking for event partners to help us build and deliver the programme. If you’d like to find out more about this year’s opportunities and how you can get involved then please get in touch directly at paige.mcgowan@futurehumber.com.

Details on how to book these events are available below.

I hope to see you all soon!

Happy reading…

Your Move – Your new home in Hull, East Yorkshire, and Northern Lincolnshire

When choosing a new place to live, there is so much to consider. Whether you’re moving for work, or to find a better lifestyle, or to be closer to loved ones, you will need to think about where in the region you want to buy or rent a home for you and your family.

 

The Humber region has a lot to offer in terms of property and it’s true that you can get more bang for your buck in this area. The range of properties that are available in the variety of environments – city, coast, or countryside – is outstanding, but importantly, the money you will need to lay out to lay down roots in this part of the world makes relocating to the Humber worth thinking about.

Innovative Thinking

 

Date: Thursday 21st September

Time: 8.30am - 10.00am

 

Problem-solving and combatting challenges in the workplace requires a whole host of skills, but how often do you think creatively to find solutions? 

The reality is that creativity in the workplace is not just relevant to artistic jobs. It is highly likely that we could all benefit from harnessing innovative thinking, as it is easy to get stuck in a rut of using longstanding beliefs and processes without questioning ‘why?’ and thinking about how things could be done differently. Using your imagination to break the norm and take new approaches could be a game-changer in becoming a more agile and inspired contributor or leader. This event will help inspire you to unlock your creativity, with relevant applications to your career, no matter your role or the industry in which you work.
