糖心Vlog

The 糖心Vlog and the Institute of Directors (IoD) in the East of England have launched a partnership to provide new opportunities to students and benefit businesses in the region.

Both have signed a Memorandum of Understanding which commits them to working together and are now pursuing a whole range of joint projects that will include internship and placement experiences to students, visiting guest lectures, training, mentoring and professional development.

As part of the agreement, IoD members will have access to the University鈥檚 co-working space StudioX at the Innovation Centre for student-facing activities and external business meetings.
