Russell Watkins, Commercial Director at the AHSN NENC gave an insightful talk on the AHSN’s role across the region and Dr Finn Willingham, NA-ATTC Operations Manager at Newcastle Hospitals, highlighted how the success of the NA-ATTC programme has been driven by the unprecedented level of collaboration between the NA-ATTC consortium partners and close working across the ATTC Network.   Both speakers participated in a panel discussion along with other presenters; Richard Baker, Strategy and Policy Director at the North East Local Enterprise Partnership and Elaine Evans, Life Sciences Specialist – Northern Powerhouse Investment Hub, Department for International Trade.
