During the event, organised by Innovation Centres Scotland Limited, the attendees met on a one-to-one basis with some of the world’s largest technology players to discuss collaboration, joint ventures and partnerships.
A number of discussions have already led to commercial partnerships being initiated. Huw Evans, Director of Media and Content Consultancy practice at LogicaCMG said: “We’ve been very impressed with the quality of people we have met today. They have taken the time to understand what LogicaCMG does and have tailored their pitch accordingly. There have been some really interesting ideas coming forward in the areas of language input solutions and field force automation. I was particularly impressed by a potential software application which can identify which language you are speaking. As far as I am aware no one else has come up with such an application.”
