The Business Show
 |
Building on the success of the last four shows this
exciting exhibition has become the signature business to business
show across the South West.
The exhibition, with 100 stands, is free of charge for all
visitors, with a programme of informative seminars providing advice
about key business interests. There is also a café area, which
provides an excellent opportunity for visitors to meet and network
over lunch.
As a sponsor, your company will place itself
in the spotlight not only on the day itself but also during the
weeks leading up to the event and after the event via pre and
post-event PR activity. This is a unique opportunity to share
in the kudos of this event.
 Hilary Faulkner, last
year's sponsor of the speed networking sessions, said
“We deliver government funded training and the show has
enabled us to raise awareness of this. The response has been great
and we are going away with many enquiries. The speed networking
sessions were fully booked and the whole event certainly helped
create a business community”.

Annual Dinner
Cost is between £5k and £15k depending on the number of
sponsors
We were delighted
to once again be sponsors for the annual dinner. It was great to
see such a good
turnout and your choice of speaker in David Davies was perfect for
the audience. My team made some excellent new connections and
renewed many more! Business
West attracts so many influential and like
minded people which reinforces the point that Bristol is the place
to be!
