The business world is all about getting together – whether that’s at meetings, seminars, conferences, presentations – or simply at work. But in the brave new world of telecommunications, we don’t always have to meet up – or even go to into the office…
We can telework from home, video-conference when we want to meet up, or we can use a simple webcam for when face-to-face is better than using the phone or email. There may be grants available to help you do this – speak to a Big Wheel Business Club adviser, Matthew Price, if you’re in the City of Nottingham on 0115 8763947, or call 0115 9774658 for advice if your organisation is in the County.
Of course, there are wider issues at stake here. The internet revolution has considerable implications for the way we all do business in the future – which, combined with rising congestion and global warming, may well mean many more ‘virtual’ transactions in the future.
There is a local organisation that will help you find out more and keep you in touch with this fast-changing agenda. Sign up to the Get Connected e-newsletter to keep posted on the latest technology news and events from partners across the city and county.
Connected Nottingham is a brand initiative developed by Accelerate Nottingham which brings together and celebrates partner’s achievements within the technology agenda in the Nottingham conurbation and the county of Nottinghamshire.
