SUMMARY:Elephant Path presents: Economy & Skills Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to the launch of a book that uniquely combines local economy\, community engagement and changing neighbourhoods. The publication explains the reasoning behind experiments conducted over the past 18 months in Barcelona\, Berlin\, Antwerp and London and captures valuable lessons for community activists\, policy makers\, researchers\, planners as well as local business people. \nThe book will be launched on Thursday 9 November 2017 at 7pm at Wellcome Collection (Burroughs Room)\, 183 Euston Road\, NW1 2BE with a short talk by Michael Edwards (Senior Lecturer\, Economics of Planning at UCL Bartlett School & Hon Prof) followed by drinks and snacks during which there will be an opportunity to meet representatives from the 4 cities: Transit from Barcelona\, Tesserae from Berlin\, endeavour from Antwerp and City Mine(d) from London. \nIn La Marina in Barcelona\, Mehringplatz in Berlin\, Oudaan/Sint Andries in Antwerp and King’s Cross/Somers Town in London these groups developed and supported local initiatives that require\, reveal\, create and improve very different types of skills: from the harder skills of understanding urban spatial and economic development schemes to the softer ones dealing with group dynamic and interpersonal relations. In a later stage they asked what these skills could mean in a future world of work. \nThis project was coordinated by City Mine(d) and is part of Elephant Path\, a bridge between large companies and locals in the Kings Cross/Somers Town area\, and was co-founded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. \nClick here for more information and to book a place.

SUMMARY:Kings Cross [Remix] by Tom Marshman (show runs until 27 May 2017)
DESCRIPTION:Kings Cross [Remix] uncovers the hidden histories of LGBTQ communities in London during the 1980s. Tom Marshman uncovers the hidden histories of LGBTQ communities through memories of the Kings Cross area; an area that has undergone radical change since its day as a hub of LGBTQ communities\, bars and culture. \nWoven together from the stories of people who experienced it first hand\, Tom’s show celebrates a raucous\, riotous time in the life of central London where sexuality was for exploring\, HIV was causing tragedy\, and rights were to be fought for. \nThe show runs from 16 May to 27 May\, for more information and to book tickets click here. \nCommissioned by and developed with the support of Camden People’s Theatre.

SUMMARY:Close the deal: The Art and Science of successful negotiation
DESCRIPTION:When: 15-19 May 2017 and 5-9 June 2017 \nCost: £4250. 20% off for Knowledge Quarter partners \nNegotiations are ubiquitous. As individuals we negotiate on a daily basis whether we are making decisions with friends and family or sealing a professional deal at work. Negotiations can range from the seemingly trivial to the very serious. \nIn business\, negotiations occur at every level; between employers and employees\, within and between firms\, between firms and government bodies\, across sectors and industries and between domestic organisations and foreign ones. And so on. Negotiations take place on matters of policy and finance – indeed negotiations can – and do – occur on anything and everything where more than one party – or “player” – is involved. \nIs this course aimed at you? \nEveryone is involved in some type of negotiation on a daily basis\, and so this course will be beneficial to a wide range of people from different organisations and backgrounds. \nIt may be of special relevance to senior managers and c-suite colleagues as well as to lawyers and individuals who are involved with commercial litigation\, dispute resolution and mergers. \nColleagues who work in sales\, purchasing and/or procurement will also find this course useful\, as will consultants who work client-side and officials who are involved in BREXIT and other policy-related negotiations. \nNo prior knowledge of game theory or economics is required and everything will be taught in plain English. Where technical concepts and tools are introduced\, this will be done cognisant of the fact that it is a non-specialist audience and will be delivered by people who have experience of doing exactly this. \nNot only that; this course is led by top Warwick University staff from a leading Department of Economics\, ranked in the top 3 in all major UK league tables; and the course will also have sessions delivered by some world class practitioners. \nFor more information and to book yourself a place then please go to the University of Warwick website.
