BUSINESSES in Warrington are being invited to attend the Amazon Innovation Accelerator, a programme that provides free training to local SMEs
The programme is coming to Warrington for the first time, hosted at Amazon’s fulfilment centre in the town on March 7 and North West businesses are invited to sign up now.
The Amazon Innovation Accelerator (AIA) provides small and medium businesses with free training on how to innovate as they grow. The Accelerator also offers a dynamic setting for training and provides an exclusive peek into how Amazon has scaled its own operations in the UK.
Through the Accelerator, small and medium businesses will benefit from a day of in-person workshops delivered by senior Amazon leaders. Topics include an insight into Amazon’s culture of innovation and working backwards mechanisms as well as a detailed walk-through of the Warrington fulfilment centre to see Amazon’s technology and processes in practice.
Participants will also gain access to a comprehensive e-learning course which includes modules on Introduction to AI, digitisation, innovation, leadership, operational efficiency and more. Participating businesses can also earn recognition as an AIA Innovation Leader.
Christian Stewart site leader at Warrington, said: “The Amazon Innovation Accelerator exists to help businesses as they develop cultures of innovation within their own organisations.”
“The Accelerator has been successful so far, and I am excited to host businesses in the North West at our Warrington site.”
Local small and medium sized businesses can register to apply for the AIA now. Spaces are limited and applications close on March 2.
