Following the creation of the new Science, Innovation and Technology Department, Laura convened a Q&A session with West Berkshire businesses and the Science Minister, George Freeman.
Laura said that it was "a pleasure to host a roundtable this morning with the Minister for Science, Research and Innovation, George Freeman and some of West Berkshires most exciting science, technology & clean energy businesses.
"The new Department of Science, Innovation and Technology has been created with their success in mind. We lead in this areas throughout the Thames Valley and along the M4 Corridor and I am looking forward to bringing the Minister here soon so that he can see for himself the work that they do."
