George Freeman MP Minister for Life Sciences Presents The Norfolk Innovation Awards 2016 Tuesday 21st June 6.30pm onwards Hosted by Wymondham High Academy Programme of Events for the Evening Norfolk Way 2016 Innovation Awards fter the enormous success of the inaugural awards Alast year, and with winners from across all the Norfolk schools, I am thrilled and delighted to welcome all of you tonight. For too long, I believe Norfolk has been regarded as a rural backwater, in education and in particular the all- important STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) subjects. If we are going to unlock the full potential of Norfolk’s young people and equip them to success in the increasingly competitive global economy, and to seize and benefit from the growing opportunities on their doorstep here in the Eastern Region, then we must do all we can to promote the spirit of innovation and enterprise in our area and encourage the next generation. I am delighted that through these awards supported by and in conjunction with some of the leading businesses and skill agencies in our area, we are celebrating the best and inspiring the rest by rewarding the best examples of science and innovation in schools and colleges. Together, we will help build a network of Norfolk enterprise and innovation to help power the Norfolk Economy for the 21st Century.
