AN OLYMPIC cyclist will be in the saddle teaching Yorkshire’s businesses how to move up a gear by investing in innovation.

Chris Boardman, a gold medallist, will talk about why companies should have their eye on ideas rather than their budget when he is the guest speaker at an Innovation Futures Showcase event at Yorkshire Sculpture Park on June 22.

Mr Boardman says that companies can draw inspiration from his career while exploring options on how to improve their business with help from Sheffield Hallam.
