Who is here?

It’s a fantastic working environment. We knew that there were already lots of organisations based at the European Marine Science Park that it would be good to be close to. The cross-working is very important. It’s a thriving and exciting place to be!Dr Lynda Mitchell, Manager, ALIEnergy
