Slide 5 - Themes The Great Exhibition of the North will be a revelation, a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of the incredible innovations in art, culture and design going on right now across the North, telling the story of how the North continues to shape the way we all live our lives. Key themes we are highlighting are the North’s innovation in Art, Design and Culture. NGI felt as part of their bid that it was also important to show the innovation through these themes that have come out, but also the innovations in the key industry strengths of the North. We are therefore exploring ways of telling the story of four outstanding and distinctive capabilities in the North, where the North is highly productive and competes on national and international stages: ● Advance Manufacturing and Materials ● Health Innovation
