Summary Maria has led the Maker Space since 2017, and recently developed a partnership with HOST, our skills and technology innovation hub. She describes her MediaCity experience:
“My job is about developing digital savvy talent. There’s a real vacuum of talent with the necessary skills across the board, from manufacturing to cyber security. Businesses need workers with 2-3 years’ experience, but if you’re a graduate or a young person it’s hard to get that experience, particularly in developing areas such as esports. That’s where our partnership with HOST comes in. We provide the training and hands-on experience to move from education into the network of media, digital and creative businesses based at MediaCity – through tasters, bootcamps, internships, professional certification and then jobs."Linked Funders #3 University of Salford People Maria Stukoff Org Units School of Science, Engineering & Environment URL https://www.mediacityuk.co.uk/tales-from-the-city/maria-stukoff/
