The launch event will be on Wednesday 9th October at the STEM centre on the University of Bradford campus. The Dragon’s Den pitch event will be on Wednesday 27th November, also at the STEM centre.

Each team of students will receive a research pack to support their Island design; webinars and face-to-face sessions; and access to a mentor throughout the project.
