No-one understands by Business! (Westhead and Storey 1996) By Lesley Strachan May 2010

Previous Work The future of the UK’s global competitiveness depends upon the transfer of knowledge, innovation and entrepreneurship (Botham & Mason, 2007) The education provision nationally was and still is not ‘set up’ to deliver skills to small firms (Wedgewood, 2004)

Round table discussion The education provision nationally was and still is not ‘set up’ to deliver skills to small firms (Wedgewood, 2004) Questions for Discussion Do we in this room believe that nationally the UK is still not ‘set up’? Are we at Southampton Solent University ‘set up’?

Roundtable Discussion What do we know about the learning needs of small businesses in Southampton? What do we know about how small businesses might want to learn new skills?
