New event set to inspire and inform the Bolton business community

Oxford Innovation has launched a free event for startup and growing businesses in Bolton and Greater Manchester.

The event supports Bolton’s strategy for becoming a thriving business hub in the North West.

‘Masterclass: Design Thinking and Creative Problem Solving in Business’ will be held from 10am to 3pm on November 13, at The Wellsprings, the new office and innovation centre that is opening soon to support startups, growing businesses and entrepreneurs in and around Bolton.

At the Masterclass, which will be hosted by experienced growth and innovation consultant, Naomi Timperley, attendees will learn about design thinking and how it can change their approach to problem solving and innovative thinking.

After Bolton Council marked the successful completion of the regeneration of the building in September 2024, Oxford Innovation is due to manage The Wellsprings on the council’s behalf once it opens its doors later this year.

As the leading operator of innovation centres across the UK and Ireland, Oxford Innovation provides businesses with advice, coaching, mentoring and prides itself on building vibrant business communities.

Nick Brushett, centre manager for The Wellsprings, said: “There’s considerable investment and regeneration happening in Bolton right now and it’s an exciting time for startups and entrepreneurs looking to start a new venture or level up an existing business in the town.

This event from Oxford Innovation promises to inspire and inform the business community in Bolton, Greater Manchester and the North West, and is just the start of us building a vibrant network within the town.”

The event is free of charge. People can find out more details and register here:
