MIDAS is the inward investment agency for Greater Manchester, providing free of charge advice and assistance to national and international organisations looking to locate in the area or expand their existing operations. MIDASâ services include the provision of market research and labour information, assistance with finding property, access to grants and help to recruit and train staff.
The key deliverable of this project is for MIDAS to deliver between eight and ten topic led innovation focused events at regular intervals between November 2016 and September 2018 fostering collaborative relationships between SMEâs, large organisations, universities and public institutions.

For each event MIDAS will require: 1. The development of a well-reasoned and fully developed theme and delivery plan for each event. 2. Development of the agenda. 3. Sector targeted key messages for each event. 4. Venue finding and booking. 5. Event logistics including event timings. 6. An account manager to attend events and run logistics. 7.
