10^th June              Eco Innovation Myths & Truths

17^th June              Environmental and ethical marketing and design - developing transparent, effective communication and brand strategies

Claire Simsek of Green Passion Creative specialises in graphic design that minimises environmental impact. She is qualified in product and service innovation with a Masters in Design, Strategy and Innovation management.  Based in the Eco Innovation Centre, Claire will talk about the ways in which companies can achieve effective environmental and ethical communications through strategic planning and cultural innovation.

24^th June              Hydraulic Modulation - innovative water saving technology

Mark Lock of Aquavent has developed innovations to automatically control water pressures in mains, which reduces leaks. Rather than relying on batteries, these devices use hydraulic modulation, so do not require electricity. If installed widely, these could reduce the water currently lost in the UK - the equivalent to 58 million baths a day in the UK. Here Mark presents the Aquai-Mod® and discusses the obstacles in reaching the market.

1^st July                  Anaerobic Digestion

Michael Langan, Commercial Director for the Centre for Sustainable Engineering and Chairman of East Mids branch of the Energy Institute, has been working on Anaerobic Digestion  reactors which will maximise biomass to energy conversion to optimise commercial performance and environmental benefits. Anaerobic Digestion is being promoted as a key technology to deliver a waste to energy solution resolving many waste management and renewable energy issues.
