Acceleration Through Innovation (ATI), a three-year, £3million European Regional Development Fund project led by the University of Plymouth, has launched in Bodmin and Penzance.

The launch events, the first of which was at Lanhydrock Golf Club, welcomed partnership organisations and interested businesses.

Working in partnership with Cornwall Innovation, ATI will be setting up nine strategically located pop-up innovation centres at locations including Liskeard and Looe. They will offer one-to-one business advice, workshops, networking and the use of desk and meeting space.

Acceleration Through Innovation will be officially opening its first pop-up centre in Fore Street, Bodmin next week (October 11).
