The advanced manufacturing and engineering sectors in Sheffield

We are known all over the world as a leading centre for engineering research, advanced manufacturing (or 2.0, as some call it), light weight technologies and specialist materials - and, perhaps most importantly, having the knowledge and skills base from our Universities to excel in prototyping and R&D too.

Sheffield has a fantastic programme of vibrant events and festivals all year round, from international sporting fixtures and summer music festivals to world-renowned theatre and exhibitions.

Hillsborough Vape Lounge Case Study

When Roger first visited Hillsborough Vape Lounge to offer his support, owner Steve Mansfield said thanks but no thanks. “Being me,” says Roger, “I said something like ‘Well, I bet you I could help make it even better!’” Later that day, Steve found himself stuck with something and decided to give Roger a call.

Get Together

Get Together - as the name suggests - is a friendly affair. It's about having a great time discovering new music whilst meeting some great people, and also getting to have some tasty food and drink from local producers while you're at it. It's about ditching the attitude that can come with music sometimes, about letting yourself go, and coming together at the same time.
