“On behalf of the South East Wales Library partnership, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Julie Williams for her work on the Libraries and Learndirect project. This project involved setting out a Strategic and Action Plan detailing how the public libraries in South East Wales and the University for Industry (UFI) could work together in partnership promoting on-line learning in libraries. The work also covered drafting a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to support libraries becoming part of the UFI Flexible Learning in the Community (FLIC) European bid.

Julie Williams has considerable experience of working with European bids and she has a very clear understanding of what is required by the Welsh European Funding Office. This knowledge proved to be invaluable and meant that she quickly identified the additional research information that was needed to support the UFI bid.

Julie has strong communications skills and a good existing network of contacts within the community which she was able to use to gather information to support both the MOU and the Plan.

Julie conducted the project professionally ensuring all relevant parties were kept informed of progress.”

“Imperialis have worked with us on two projects. The first was to identify opportunities for higher education libraries within Wales to access EU funding to part-fund projects under the Convergence and Competitiveness EU Structural Funds Programmes. The second was to establish the feasibility of submitting a Project Idea Form and an Expression of Interest for European Convergence funding to take forward a new academic library sector led scheme to provide businesses with access to electronic business information resources.

We were particularly impressed with Julie's understanding of the strategic issues, as this enabled her to develop our ideas in the context of European funding.

It resulted in the production of two excellent reports with innovative recommendations and practical outcomes, all delivered on time and within budget.”

“We approached Imperialis with an incredibly short deadline to evaluate the potential European funding opportunities for a high profile tourism and education project. They provided an excellent report that was thorough, detailed and included invaluable contacts and further steps for the project to move forward. I have no hesitation in recommending Imperialis, and will definitely be using their services again.”
