Business and IP Centre North East’s Experts in Residence offer businesses the opportunity to meet online to discuss a wide range of business topics, ranging from finance and funding, marketing and communication, intellectual property and law and many more. The Experts are, in the main, small businesses themselves and are not paid to provide this service so meetings are limited to one only per Expert. Duration of the meeting can be 30 minutes, up to an hour, at the Experts discretion.
