Manchester Inventors Group

Inventors' Showcase

Terry Singleton and Clayton Roudette

Central Library
St Peter's Square

Tuesday, 6 Aug 2005 18:00 - 20:00

This is an important meeting for two reasons.

First, the Manchester Inventors Group showcases two success stories:

• Terry Singleton who won first prize with his "anyway up bin" in the UMIC 2005 Ideas competition; and
• Clayton Roudette who came second with his TIKKI pavilion

Secondly, this is an opportunity to discuss the future of the Group. Until June it was funded by the TIDE project. That funding has now come to an end. Members of the Group hope to re-launch as a membership association run by inventors, for inventors, either as a separate society or as a chapter of IdeasNW.

All meetings of the group will take place at Manchester Central library in St PeterÂ’s Square on the first Tuesday of every month between 18:00 and 20:00. Click here for directions.
