A message from NWBLT Chairman and Pilkington Chief Executive Stuart Chambers
"Liverpool's Capital of Culture 2008 provides us with a golden opportunity to host a major business experience. We are developing a really world-class 2 day business summit with a strong attendance of prominent national and international people. I know a lot of companies and Chief Executives and have made it my personal mission to persuade as many of them as possible to attend. Think of how the region's image will benefit from key people returning home enthusing to friends and colleagues about how great it is to live and work in England's Northwest."

LJMU is proud to be a modern university, with learning and the advancement of our students at the heart of all our activity. Our ethos is dream, plan, achieve and we aim to nurture the dreams of every single student. Our approach is holistic in nature - we provide stimulating and challenging programmes of study that are informed by scholarship and research, and that engender a spirit of academic enquiry; and we also provide an environment conducive to the personal development of our students - for example, through our Foundation for Citizenship we encourage students to become thoughtful, ethical people. We understand the importance of real-world experience and help students to gain practical experience through work placements. We also are aware that university isn't all about working and studying so we encourage students to socialise with their peers in a variety of ways - for example, in conjunction with Liverpool Students' Union we provide an wide range of sporting and recreational opportunities for our students and staff
