A new-look Business School which will play a leading role in the transformation of the region’s economy has officially opened at Teesside University.
Teesside University Business School is an international school at the heart of the region and will significantly enhance the £76 million per annum GVA generated across the Tees Valley and North East by the University’s knowledge transfer and business collaboration activities.*
Formally opened by Teesside University Chancellor Paul Drechsler CBE, a former president of the CBI, it will respond to economic and societal needs, by building and equipping the requisite leaders, managers and innovators of the future and working with business to address productivity issues, embrace innovation and develop the skills and knowledge of the existing workforce.
This will be achieved by the development of more entrepreneurs, a significant focus on developing a cadre of ethical, leaders and managers, enabling access to the graduate talent and working with business to directly address the barriers to growth and profitability.
Alongside, state-of-the art learning facilities and collaborative workspaces, the new Business School will see companies, ranging from micro-businesses and SMEs to key North-East businesses, using its facilities and working alongside students, sharing knowledge and innovation.
As well as providing opportunities for students to gain insight into real-world business issues and hone their graduate capabilities, it will also provide a forum for collaboration, helping to build a network of engaged students and employers which will boost graduate level job opportunities, keeping key skills and knowledge within the region.
Teesside University Business School has also highlighted scale up support as a key strand of its activity and has introduced a programme for business leaders called Leap 50, which focuses on supporting leaders and organisations through the business scale up process.
Mr Drechsler said: “As President of the CBI, I championed the view that education must equip our young people with so much more than just knowledge.
“Creativity, thought-leadership, risk-taking and envisioning – the skills of an entrepreneur- are also critical.
“It is refreshing therefore, to see this modern and ambitious business school, founded on the principles of enterprise.
“Here we see a commitment to collaboration, team spirit and partnership. There are facilities here to bring together staff, students, business leaders, local community, and an ethos of cooperation.
“It is this new model that will deliver the business leaders of the future. It cannot be ignored.”
Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive Professor Paul Croney said: “Teesside University is an anchor institution, driving economic growth through the development of people, business support and innovation.
“The Business School is a fundamental catalyst for the region and also a significant player on the international stage, developing the leaders and managers of the future in countries including Sri Lanka, Singapore, Sweden and the Czech Republic.”

Teesside University’s innovation in the construction sector has been recognised as one of the UK’s 100 best breakthroughs for its significant impact on people’s everyday lives.
Professor Nashwan Dawood, Associate Dean (Research and Innovation) in the School of Science, Engineering & Design, led pioneering research into the development of integrated 5D modelling – 3D modelling that includes time efficiency and cost management dimensions.
The work, which continues with the Smart Energy Systems and Energy Informatics research group at Teesside University, involves the development of innovative digital technologies for building and energy information modelling processes.
The impact of the research has been far-reaching, with 5D principals being used across the UK, South Korea and Malaysia. It has also been employed in the ground breaking ‘Virtual Construction Site’ development, which enabled project managers to visualise detailed information prior to commencing construction.
The list of breakthroughs, compiled by Universities UK, demonstrates how UK universities are at the forefront of some of the world’s most important discoveries, innovations and social initiatives and also highlights the less celebrated, but vital breakthroughs, that transform lives.
The UK’s 100 Best Breakthroughs is part of University UK’s MadeAtUni campaign which is shining a spotlight on universities and the difference they make to people, lives and communities.
Professor Simon Hodgson, Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation) at Teesside University, said: “It is a fantastic achievement for the University to be featured in the UK’s Best Breakthrough list. We are extremely proud of the work of our academics and the difference they are making to people, lives and communities.
“The MadeAtUni campaign is an important national intake which aims to demonstrate the enormous impact that the research carried out in the University sector by Teesside University and others has on the lives of individuals, and the success of business.”
Professor Dame Janet Beer, President of Universities UK, said: “Universities really do transform lives. The technology we use every day, the medicines that save lives, the teachers who inspire – all come from UK universities and the important work being done by academics.
“The UK’s Best Breakthroughs list is a testament to the difference that universities make to people’s lives and we want everyone to join us in celebrating the work they do.”
The UK’s Best Breakthroughs list: 100+ Ways Universities Have Improved Everyday Life was put together in partnership with universities across the UK. The entries cover health, technology, environment, family, community and culture and sport.
An engineering company is putting ambitious expansion plans into action, thanks to support from Innovate Tees Valley and Teesside University.
Industrial and Marine Hydraulics (IMH), a Middlesbrough-based hydraulic engineering company is about to embark on a major overhaul of its systems and processes in preparation for a period of sustained growth.
Over the next three years, the company is planning to double its turnover and take on an extra 10 staff, alongside a major investment in machinery and facilities.
Founded by hydraulics engineer Paul Griffiths, IMH has grown from a home-based business in 1983 to a leading global player in hydraulic engineering, with experience of working across more than 50 countries.
IMH delivers major hydraulic engineering projects and its capabilities include design and build, manufacturing, installation, commissioning, servicing, maintenance and repairs, as well as component supplies and training.
The company has extensive experience of providing hydraulic engineering expertise and solutions to sectors including oil and gas, marine, subsea, energy (including renewables), nuclear, infrastructure, manufacturing and automotive.
Dr Osama Alaskari, a former Teesside University PhD student, has been working at the company as a Systems Analyst on an 11 month project to review all of its systems, processes and procedures to ensure that they can accommodate this growth.
He has been assisted by Dr Ruben Pinedo-Cuenca, business innovation manager in the School of Science, Engineering and Design who specialises in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).
Innovate Tees Valley, funded by the European Regional Development Fund and led by Teesside University, helps small businesses to try new things and improve or develop products, services and processes.
Innovate Tees Valley’s Knowledge Exchange Internship (KEI) programme has been able to part-fund Osama’s salary and Dr Pinedo-Cuenca’s consultancy.
IMH, Commercial Director, James Griffiths said: “This is the most transformational project this company has undertaken in its 35 year history.
“It’s unbelievably exciting, but it’s really important that we get it right.”
General Manager at IMH, Ian Duffew added: “As we move into Industry 4.0, the businesses that thrive will be ones that have incorporated technology to its fullest.
“We see a massive opportunity to improve what we have and want to automate as many of our processes as possible throughout the business.
“However, that’s not without its challenges and we realised that we didn’t have all the answers, so it was great to be able to utilise the University to bring in new skills.
“As an SME, the fact that Osama has been able to come in and dedicate himself to this project has been fantastic.
“We would still be talking about doing this project if it wasn’t for the work that he has done.”
Dr Pinedo-Cuenca said: “We are delighted to have been able to help Industrial and Marine Hydraulics. It’s fantastic to be able to work on a live project like this.
“Osama has also been teaching at the University and the experience and information he is passing on to the students will be invaluable in supporting the academic activities of the University.”
Both the University and IMH hope that projects like this will have a positive impact on how industry and academics work together to achieve long-term sustainability and business success.

PD Ports, one of the UK’s major port groups, has signed a multi-million pound, five-year contract with British Gypsum, creating new jobs and cementing Teesport’s growing reputation as the premier port for bulk handling on the country’s east coast.
Part of the global Saint-Gobain group, British Gypsum, which is the UK’s leading manufacturer in plaster and plasterboard products for the construction industry, will bring shipments from Europe directly into Teesport every two weeks where it will be stored in a new bulks warehousing facility.
The contract will create four new jobs at the port to handle British Gypsum’s UK gypsum rock imports, a vital component in the manufacturing process, destined for the firm’s Yorkshire and Cumbrian based facilities.
Through Teesport’s dedicated rail terminal directly linked to the bulks facility, trains will run six days a week, providing British Gypsum with a flexible, cost effective and environmentally efficient solution for its UK imports.
Frans Calje, PD Ports’ CEO, commented: “This announcement is great news, not just for Teesport but for the wider Tees Valley region. It signifies the high level of confidence the UK bulks and aggregates industry has in Teesport to deliver a service unrivalled by others ports on the east coast.
“As a deep sea port and with the capability to handle larger vessels with direct rail links from port side to customer we are able to provide British Gypsum with the best service possible.
“As part of our long-term growth strategy we have seen in excess of £50M invested in the last few years to develop and expand our platform to support the increased demand to serve the UK’s bulks and aggregates market from Teesport.
“This investment symbolises our commitment to the future, providing an important addition to our wider plans at Teesport and its pivotal role in driving government plans to rebalance trade through the Northern Powerhouse.”
The Chief Executive of Middlesbrough Council, Tony Parkinson, has spoken to delegates at a Built Environment Networking event about the local authority’s investment prospectus, which aims to create £625m of inward investment – with one of the key priorities being the physical regeneration of Middlesbrough town centre.
He said: “This is not just about creating new buildings, it’s about changing the narrative around Middlesbrough. It saddens me that Middlesbrough is a good place to come on a bad news day. We are going to change that narrative and create some positivity.”
Parkinson also spoke about the council’s plans to create a major leisure and housing hub in Middlehaven, after the local authority acquired most of the land from Homes England.
One of the other key developments, according to Tony Parkinson, will be the 210,000 Centre Square, which will become the ‘premier office location between Newcastle and Leeds’.
Mark Ashall, Director at Ashall Projects who’re behind the said Centre Square development, was also in attendance speaking about the scheme. He said planning permission has now been granted for five buildings on the site.
Two of those buildings are currently being built as part of the first phase of development, including one which will be the new headquarters of Middlesbrough Council.
Of the development he said: “We believe Centre Square addresses the lack of Grade A office space in Middlesbrough and will create a new office hub and a motor to drive the local economy.”
The development sits close to Teesside University and Middlesbrough College – helping employers source qualified staff and training. It will also boast a high-quality public realm whilst ensuring it’s at the heat of the local transport network for easy connectivity to the surrounding area.
The event’s final speaker, Stephen Brown, spoke about the ongoing work around the Tees Advanced Manufacturing Park (TeesAMP) which is expected to bring 1,000 jobs into the region.
The project, now fully funding, is entering its first phase which will see 180,000 sq ft of units being built. Full planning consent has been granted for the phase meaning the first buildings should be up by the Summer of 2019 – with everything completed by the end of next year.

Three of Tees Valley’s top businesswomen have added their voices to a group that helps drive economic transformation across the region.
Brenda McLeish, Vikki Jackson-Smith and Annabel Turpin have all joined the Tees Valley Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) following a drive for diversity earlier this year.
Ms McLeish is the CEO of one of the UK’s largest training providers, Learning Curve Group. The firm delivers a broad range of education and training programmes across diverse industry sectors to around 120,000 learners each year.
Ms Jackson-Smith is the CEO of the North East’s largest independent waste management company, J&B Recycling Ltd. The Company operates from two sites in Hartlepool and one in Middlesbrough and employs more than 200 people.
As Chief Executive and Artistic Director of ARC, Stockton’s arts centre, Annabel Turpin leads one of the North East’s largest arts venues. The ARC welcomes more than 110,000 visitors per year through its doors.
In another new appointment, current member David Soley, the Chairman of Cameron’s Brewery, has been made the LEP’s Deputy Chair.
The LEP, chaired by former Sabic UK Chairman Paul Booth OBE, works closely with the wider business community and other partners to drive forward economic growth and job creation in the area. It works in partnership with Mayor Houchen, the Tees Valley Combined Authority, and the five Council Leaders.
In September, a call was made for new members to strengthen private sector representation and increase diversity in the group, with the aim of having a 50/50 split of male and female business representatives by 2020. Following the application process, Ms McLeish, Ms Jackson-Smith and Ms Turpin were appointed.
Paul Booth, LEP Chair, said: “These new appointments are three brilliant examples of people from organisations that are committed to our area and dedicated to seeing it succeed. Our already accomplished LEP is now even stronger thanks to Brenda, Vikki and Annabel, and their wealth of experience.
“I’m looking forward to working with them, and the Combined Authority, to help shape the plans that will transform our area and to talk up Tees Valley. This is just the tip of the iceberg in our ambitions to represent every element of our varied and dynamic business and cultural community, and make sure their voices are heard.”
Brenda McLeish said: “I’m very pleased to be able to add my experience to the mix of the LEP. We have some fantastic leaders on the LEP and I hope my background in providing education, training and skills can add a different dimension to what we can offer, especially with all of the great skills initiatives being launched by the Combined Authority.”
Vikki Jackson-Smith said: “J&B Recycling has been established in Tees Valley for more than 20 years and our continued growth has helped us give back to the area we are passionate about. Now, as part of the Tees Valley LEP, I am happy to be able to use my position to help shape the future of the region on an even bigger scale.”
Annabel Turpin said: “Culture is a major strand of the Combined Authority’s plan for economic growth, especially with the bid to be City of Culture 2025. I’m looking forward to bringing my expertise to the table to support our thriving arts scene and help make Tees Valley an even better place to live, work and visit.”

A business founded by two Teesside University aerospace engineering students which plans to launch the first civilian space mission in the UK has won a major start-up competition.
StratoBooster was named as having the ‘Highest Growth Potential’ as well as being named as ‘Ones to Watch’ in the 2018 If We Can You Can (IWCYC) challenge.
The business has been founded by Andrew Dunn and Ben Massey, who are both in their final year of a BEng(Hons) Aerospace Engineering, and is based at Teesside University’s start-up incubator Launchpad.
StratoBooster was originally spun out of a student-led space exploration project, TU2Space, and is working on researching, designing and constructing a small satellite launch platform.
The StratoBooster rocket will ascend to 30km via a meteorological balloon before detaching and using a rocket booster to fire its payload into orbit.
The rocket will launch small payloads including tiny satellites, known as femtosatellites, which can be used by researchers in businesses, schools and universities.
The small-scale nature of the rocket means that payloads can be delivered to space at a fraction of the cost of other commercial alternatives.
The business has already won support from the University Alliance which awarded Stratobooster £3,000 investment.
Andrew and Ben also recently completed the DigitalCity Fellowship Accelerator which works with Tees Valley entrepreneurs to offer funding, workshops and bespoke consultancy as they develop their product or idea.
Now in its 10th year, the IWCYC Challenge aims to publicise and connect start-up businesses with the wider North East business community. From Northumberland to Teesside, the challenge is open to all sectors looking for regional opportunities and to connect with existing well-established businesses.
As a result of winning the IWCYC Challenge, the pair will be given support to grow their business, including mentoring and a trip to a European conference or expo.
Andrew said: “It was fantastic to win this competition. Not only was it great to get the recognition, but it’s a real vote of confidence to know that people are interested in what you are doing.
“The trip to the expo, in particular, will be extremely beneficial as we try and tell more people about our business.
“We’re really excited about what we’re doing here and believe it has the potential to bring some quality graduate jobs to Teesside.
“We’ve had fantastic support throughout from the University, including from Launchpad and DigitalCity, and it was great to see so many from the University team there when we got the award.”
Laura Woods, Director of Academic Enterprise at Teesside University, said: “We’re delighted that StratoBooster have won this award.
“They have developed a truly innovative business idea with the potential to revolutionise the way space research is carried out.”
Teesside logistics giant AV Dawson has been selected by Trans Global Projects (TGP), an international project logistics management company, to be the ‘bio-secure’ base of operations for a shipment to the British Antarctic Survey’s (BAS) Rothera Research Station at Rothera Point.
Part of AV Dawson’s quayside freight terminal within Teesport in Teesside has been transformed into a ‘bio-secure’ location for the delivery, de-contamination and repackaging of TGP’s shipment destined for Antarctica.
TGP was awarded the contract for project logistics management for a shipment of equipment and construction materials to the British Antarctic Survey’s (BAS) Rothera Research Station at Rothera Point by BAM. The global construction and civil engineering company is in charge of removing Rothera Point’s old wharf and building a new one. The wharf is scheduled to be built over two Antarctic seasons, starting in November 2018, and is to accommodate the UK’s new state-of-the-art polar research vessel, RRS Sir David Attenborough. Serving as a UK Hub for polar science, Rothera is located 900 miles south of the tip of South America on Adelaide Island, which is along the western coast of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Antarctica has the coldest and one of the harshest climates on Earth; it also has an incredibly fragile ecosystem that can be threatened by the incursion of harmful organisms and non-native species of plants and animals. TGP and AV Dawson have been closely cooperating to ensure that all cargo undergoes strict bio secure measure of cleaning and storage before it is loaded onto the vessel.
Charlie Nettle, AV Dawson head of commercial and marketing said: “TGP selected AV Dawson’s Tees Freight Terminal because of its ability to adapt and transform into a bio-secure site. The decontamination process for the Rothera shipment started weeks before any of the materials arrived. Our facility underwent deep cleaning directly prior to commencement of receiving cargo. This was conducted in addition to a routine maintenance schedule of spraying insecticides, pesticides and herbicides and a manual inspection to remove weeds, rodents, insects and other pests.
“The project has utilised multiple areas of our site including two large fabrication halls on our quayside site which have been segregated to create a manageable bio secure area for packaging and palletisation of cargo. TGP has also been able to benefit from the use of our Environment Agency approved wash pad facilities to decontaminate any cargo that arrives on site. Our TRIP (Tees Riverside Intermodal Park) site has also received and stored over 90 containers destined for the project.”
Colin Charnock, TGP CEO, commented: “Trans Global Projects won this contract thanks to our extensive track-record in biosecurity and quarantine procedures – most notably in our work with project shipments and logistics to Australia, which has some of the strictest biosecurity regulations in the world. However, the Rothera project team faced another major challenge: no construction equipment or material being available on site in Rothera. This therefore necessitated in TGP consolidating, preparing and shipping all the supplies and equipment necessary for the wharf removal and re-construction at the research base on a single vessel charter.”
TGP and AV Dawson’s teams are working closely with all the teams on site. Both companies have employed dedicated project supervisors to ensure the success of the project. Products ranging from two 300-tonne crawler cranes to construction steel and cement have been delivered into the site and are being prepared to be loaded on to the vessel. In total, it is anticipated that over 13,000 cubic metres of products will have been received and loaded directly onto the vessel from AV Dawson’s quayside facilities.
“Over the course of several weeks in late October and November, a team of Trans Global Projects experts have worked at a specially prepared site at AV Dawson to direct all aspects of the decontamination and loading procedures. We chose AV Dawson’s Teesside facility as port of loading because it is well equipped to handle such extensive treatment of cargo”, Charnock adds.
“All cargo intended for the November shipment to Rothera Point was inspected upon arrival and then washed using ultra high-pressure water jets. This decontamination process developed by TGP for this shipment is unique in its scope. As far as we are aware, this project represents the first time such stringent export procedures have been carried out at a UK port facility on such a scale”, Charnock points out. The cargo, where deemed necessary, was additionally treated with residual insecticide solutions. All containers and loading equipment underwent fumigation, and only timber compliant with the International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM15) was used for export packing.”
The project highlights the strength of capabilities in the North East region to facilitate a project of this scale and complexity. TGP also called on support from Gateshead based Stadium Export Services, part of the British Engines Group, who were responsible for the packaging, palletisation and containerisation of some of the construction products and machinery, allowing it to be stored safely and securely for transit in the vessel.
Brian Smith, Stadium Export Services CEO said: “We were delighted to be approached to work on this exciting project which draws on the expertise and heritage of the North East. This has been a fantastic opportunity to collaborate with other businesses within the region on a world-leading research operation.
“Due to the critical nature of this project, we worked on site and to a strict time-scale to design and manufacture bespoke preservation and packaging solutions for the construction materials which will be used on the project. It’s incredibly important that the equipment is packed in the right way to ensure there are no surprises when it arrives in the Antarctic! Protecting the environment was priority when considering the materials and methods used on this project, avoiding contamination was a key focus for us.”
The shipment will depart from Teesside in November and travel over 9,600 miles to Rothera Research Station at Rothera Point in Antarctica. Rothera is located 900 miles south of South America on Adelaide Island along the western coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. The journey is expected to take approximately four to five weeks.
During the short Antarctic summer, temperatures typically range between 0 to +5 degrees Celsius. However, it can snow at any time of year and because of its coastal location and the Southern Ocean low-pressure weather systems, temperatures can vary widely at any time. There is usually sea ice restricting sea traffic to the continent through to the end of November. Since the Rothera Station is just south of the Antarctic Circle, both the vessel’s crew and the Rothera team will be able to take advantage of 24-hours of summertime daylight at the other end of the journey to unload the cargo.
The world’s oldest surviving lifeboat has made its first journey for 55 years, temporarily leaving her home in Redcar to undergo a programme of sympathetic conservation, preserving her structural integrity for generations to come.
As part of a project six years in the planning, Redcar’s historic Zetland Lifeboat was loaded onto a Low Loader provided by Richmond haulage company, G C S Johnson Ltd, and transported to AV Dawson Ltd on the banks of the River Tees, where the conservation work will take place.
Undertaken by respected Redcar boat builder, Tony Young, the project, which is conservation rather than restoration, will be based on the survey and report of a marine surveyor recommended by National Historic Ships UK. It will return to its boathouse at the Zetland Lifeboat Museum and Redcar Heritage Centre, ready for when the venue reopens in Spring 2019.
The Zetland Lifeboat was built in 1802 in South Shields and purchased by the people of Redcar. She went on to see 62 years of service, saving more than 500 lives before she was retired in 1864. The lifeboat was brought out of retirement to effect one last rescue in 1880 when the brig ‘Luna’ breached Redcar pier – all seven members of the vessel’s crew were saved.
The boat has laid in its current boathouse at the Zetland Lifeboat Museum since 1907. This will be the first time she has left the museum since 1963 when the Zetland was the centrepiece of the ninth International Lifeboat Conference in Leith, Scotland.
The project has been organised by the Friends of Zetland Lifeboat, a registered charity, which is made up of a strong crew of dedicated volunteers committed to conserving her for another 200 years. The conservation has been made possible by fundraising and donations by the charity’s supporters.
Zetland Lifeboat Museum chair, Janette Picknett, said: “This is a project six years in the planning that will preserve the Zetland Lifeboat for many future generations to enjoy. It was strange to see her leave the museum, but we know she will be back here soon thanks to Tony Young’s boatbuilding expertise. The boat is mostly sound, and we will be keeping as much of the original construction as we possibly can. We will only be undertaking repairs where they are needed to maintain structural integrity, such as replacing any decayed wood. Beyond that, the boat will receive a new coat of historically appropriate paint. The Zetland has scars and old repairs that bear witness to her many decades of life-saving work in Redcar, and it’s essential that her unique character is preserved.”
Janette added: “We are very grateful to AV Dawson Ltd, Johnsons Haulage and Tony Young for all their help. We’d also like to thank Scott Bros Ltd for assistance given in planning the move. Finally, many thanks to the Museum Committee and Redcar & Cleveland Council for their hard work in bringing this project to fruition.”
Museum Secretary, Jim Veitch, said: “National Historic Ships UK has registers that contain approximately 1,300 vessels. Within this, 200 of the most significant vessels form the National Historic Fleet, of which the Zetland Lifeboat is a member. This illustrates how important she is, both nationally and internationally.”
Gary Dawson, Managing Director, AV Dawson Ltd, said: “This is a very special project and one that is of huge historical importance; when it was brought to our attention that they were struggling to find a warehouse with an overhead crane in order to carry out their conservation project we were more than happy to offer one of ours. It’s quite apt that the oldest lifeboat in the world now comes to one of the oldest quaysides on the Tees to be restored and conserved for the enjoyment of many generations to come.”
