Sara Boswell

At Manchester Metropolitan University I currently work for the Centre for Enterprise within the faculty of Business and Law as an Enterprise Fellow. I also have a role within the department for Strategy, Enterprise and Sustainability (SES).

As an Enterprise Fellow I am currently responsible for the management of the GM AI Foundry ERDF programme: The focus of the Greater Manchester AI Foundry is to increase the innovation and innovation capacity in SMEs across GM through the adoption of Artificial Intelligence to enhance or develop new products and services. In addition, by upskilling the SME supply chain, the project will have a positive impact on the wider eco-system.  The outcomes will lead to business growth and/or increased productivity, furthermore the project aims to stimulate the demand for artificial intelligence service and product demand within the regional industrial base.  MMU are the lead partner of this programme, supported by UoS, UoM & Lancaster Uni. My role also includes the facilitation of action learning sets / growth groups and content design and delivery of workshops.

Alongside the programme management of the AI Foundry i also deliver for Undergraduates on the L4 & L5 Sales and Marketing programme, both standard and fast track routes which forms part of the CMDA.
