Marquis Media Partners (MMP), the media consultancy group, has formed a partnership with the University of Salford.

The partnership will involve Marquis working alongside staff at the university’s School of Arts and Media to deliver skills training and change consultancy to broadcasters.

The School’s dean, professor Allan Walker (pictured), said: “As well as working together on projects, including a current contract in the Far East, we can jointly leverage our industry contacts to win new business opportunities.”
