Welcome back to the latest edition of the Humber Spotlight!
Since joining the Future Humber team earlier this year, I’ve been excited and proud to lead the Talent+ programme. Yesterday’s event, Confident Media Engagement Essentials, was a fantastic demonstration of our mission to equip professionals with the skills they need to succeed.
The event offered valuable insights into engaging confidently and effectively with the media. Attendees received practical advice on navigating interviews, clearly communicating key messages, and handling difficult questions—all while staying true to their values and setting clear boundaries.
Whether participants were new to media engagement or looking to refine their skills, they left with actionable strategies to represent their organisations with confidence. Thanks to the expertise of our speakers, Dave Hudson and Suzanne Hughes, the session highlighted the importance of adaptability and resourcefulness when engaging with the media.
This event reflects the Talent+ programme’s ongoing dedication to advancing professional growth and collaboration throughout the Humber region. We believe the Humber is a remarkable powerhouse, fuelled by pioneering, forward-thinking individuals working together to shape a thriving future.
As we plan for 2025, we welcome your input. Your ideas are key to shaping future events, so please reach out and help us continue creating impactful, lasting experiences.

The morning session will feature an "in conversation" style business breakfast with leaders from business, and UK Government to discuss key sustainability topics critical to the Humber and the UK’s net-zero transition.
Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with a student-led exhibition showcasing innovative sustainability projects, and vote on their favourite projects, with winners announced during the Student Sustainability Challenge Awards later in the day.

Ruth Amos, an award-winning inventor, engineer, and one-half of the YouTube channel Kids Invent Stuff will give an inspirational keynote speech to students as well as taking part in the judging process ahead of the Waterline Student Challenge awards.
You are invited to engage with these future innovators by visiting the student exhibition where you can discover next-gen solutions and vote for your favourite project. Finalists of the Phillips 66 Sustainability Challenge will showcase their projects as part of the student exhibition.
