Services for business

The University offers some great opportunities for local businesses to capitalise on. Many choose our fantastic location for events, or use our professional conferencing facilities for key meetings.

Advertising Jobs

Video conferencing

If you need a video conferencing location, that can seat up to six with high quality equipment, then the University can help. Rates for external customers start from as low as £100+VAT for a day-long session. Our equipment can connect with up to three other locations simultaneously and allows sharing of Powerpoint presentations, all using the nearly-universal IP protocol. We welcome customers from business and other universities or even personal bookers who need a high quality link to far-off family and friends,
