Start/End Date: |
Roger Candy and Graham Baty began working full-time on enterprise activities within Northumbria University in April 2004. They established The Hatchery in April 2004. The Hatchery was originally based in a portakabin on the University's City Campus West. These premises were not ideal due to a number of issues including lack of security and temperature control. In September 2008, The Hatchery was moved to a more permanent residence in the Wynne-Jones Building on City Campus West. |
