The ReMake Glasgow training series helps manufacturers of all sizes explore practical ways to keep products in service for longer, cut carbon, and unlock new business opportunities through circular value retention.

Delivered by the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS) and the University of Strathclyde, the workshops form part of ReMake Glasgow - a project funded through the Glasgow City Region Innovation Accelerator programme, led by Innovate UK on behalf of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).

Each session introduces tools and approaches developed through ReMake demonstrators in remanufacturing, repair, and reuse , helping businesses build capability and explore collaboration opportunities with the ReMake Value Retention Centre (RVRC).

All sessions run from 09:30–12:30, followed by an optional hour of networking.
