message: Agri-Food Tech Launchpad Suffolk Showcase Invitation & Project Update Request
FAO Professor McDonald-Maier,
Hi. My name is Scott Burdon, and I have recently taken over from Julie West as the Agri-Food Tech Launchpad representative for Suffolk.
I’m contacting you as the Project Lead for the Innovate UK funded project: PRESTO – Parallel low-cost multi seedling Transplanting robot.
As the Launchpad programme is ending, we're organising a final event in Ipswich on 22 September. The morning session will be a Suffolk Showcase, giving funded projects an opportunity to present or demonstrate their achievements and future plans, while the afternoon will focus on programme reporting and close-out activities with Innovate UK and partner authorities.
To support the close-out process, could you please provide a brief update on your project by Friday 21 August, covering:
* Current project status
* Activities delivered through the funding
* Key outcomes achieved
* Next steps
I'd also like to invite [organisation] to take part in the Showcase. If you are interested, please let me know by Friday 14 August whether you would prefer to:
* Just Attend.
* Present.
* Provide a demonstration (logistics permitting).
* Contribute a case study.
In addition, the Connected Innovation team may be able to signpost you to other business support opportunities beyond Launchpad, should that be of interest.
I look forward to hearing from you.
