Thursday and Friday last week were spent working at a lovely hotel outside Portsmouth.
I managed to get myself a place on the first round of the SEEDA-funded CommercialiSE Fellow Scheme:
"CommercialiSE Fellows Training offers a free package of support to enable academics, university staff, students, alumni, SME's and entrepreneurs based in the South East region to develop business ideas i
nto a fully worked, realisable business plan.
The training will last 6 months, and will focus on developing your business potential. The CommercialiSE programme includes possible access to the South East sector consortia, 
SEEDA Enterprise Hub Networks and the CommercialiSE Mentoring Scheme."
I spent two busy but enjoyable days working alongside a people from Portsmouth, Brighton and Sussex Universities - after I made it there* - on the training course run by Hi Consulting, and I am greatly looking forward to the next one!

* The Shoreham tunnel was shut due to a peacock (or was it pheasant?) in the tunnel. Either way I way very glad to have my radio warn me to detour at exactly the right moment.
