John Duckett and Lars-Olav Nicolls are pleased to announce that
the future business of Thames Valley Technology Ltd will be
conducted by Lars' company TVT Business Innovation Ltd. The
acronym TVT will continue to be used.
John will continue to play an important role in the new company,
especially in respect of New Business Development. The move
enables their long working relationship to continue while allowing
John to reduce his work commitments gradually over the next few
years.
Clients will notice little change and the handover is already well
advanced. The new company has taken over the management of
the M4 Innovation Network with the support of Business Link
Berkshire and Wiltshire, the New Enabling Services SEEDA/ERDF
programme and the partnership in the SE Innovation Relay Centre.
Thames Valley Technology Ltd continues to run the Discontinuous
Innovation Forum until further notice. Contact details
remain unchanged apart from the company name.
