Book Now for This Year’s Unmissable Business Event

The EPIC Centre on the Lincolnshire Showground will host an unmissable event for Greater Lincolnshire businesses next month.

LEP Business Live will take place on Friday 23rd October 2015 from 9am and will feature exhibitors, guest speakers,  round table events and business networking.

The event is staged by the Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership in partnership with Business Lincolnshire and aims to shine a spotlight on the range of industries which make a vital contribution to the Greater Lincolnshire economy.

This year there will be a dedicated exhibition area with industry zones covering property, finance, energy, digital, business and skills.

LEP Business Live was launched in October 2013 as a flagship event for businesses in Lincolnshire, North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire. The theme for this year is Celebrating Greater Lincolnshire.

The Chair of the Greater Lincolnshire LEP, Ursula Lidbetter MBE, who will be hosting the event, said: “2015 has been a very successful year for Greater Lincolnshire so far. Along with the unveiling of the Agri-Food Plan 2014 – 2020 and the launch of our dedicated Food Board, we’ve secured a further £14.8 million for major developments bringing the total allocated to the area under Growth Deals so far to £146.2 million.”

“LEP Business Live is an opportunity for us to celebrate these achievements, engage with the area’s businesses and debate the big economic issues that face Greater Lincolnshire.  It’s an unmissable event for anyone doing business or working with businesses in the area.”

Entry to LEP Business Live is free but delegates are asked to pre-register via the Eventbrite page so that lunch can be provided for them.
