LinkedIn and Twitter for Business : £195 (with funding £78)

LinkedIn is the virtual version of your real-life work environment. You can connect with people you already know, give and receive recommendations, introduce your connections to others and post job vacancies or opportunities you are looking for. Just as in the real world, you can initiate discussions and create or join groups of like-minded people. Your client and colleague credentials, experience and reputation can also be seen.

Twitter is a micro-blogging service which allows you to write a short 140 character message which is then “Tweeted” on your profile page. This service is excellent for sharing information and “following” people or organisations that have information that you might be interested in : for example, latest funding rounds, new initiatives, events, news and jobs. It also provides an opportunity for you to share your latest news, or pass on information to your “Followers”. This can lead to a closer relationship with your customers, enabling them to see your business as a part of their every day working life and strengthening your expertise.

Outcome: Attendees will understand the full social media landscape, learn how to use Twitter and LinkedIn, build their connections and gain business leads. They will also have a professional profile picture taken which they can use for all their social media profiles.

The iHull vision is to support, nurture and develop the region's creative, digital and cultural industries, in partnership with a variety of other regional players. 


Our objectives are:

  • To retain and nurture talent in our local hinterlands of Hull, Scarborough, the East Riding of Yorkshire, parts of North Yorkshire, North & North East Lincolnshire, linking into networks which extend down to Grimsby and up to Whitby, by developing entrepreneurship in graduates of the creative, digital and cultural disciplines;
  • To develop new audiences and new markets, whether locally or globally, for cultural products and processes developed and produced in the region, principally by means of partnerships between the University of Hull and entrepreneurs, including our own students or graduates;
  • To set up and consolidate networks of developers, producers, distributors, retailers, customers and consumers of cultural products and services which will establish the region as a world-class cultural hub.
