🚗 Growth Hub Roadshow: Pickering
After the success of last year’s roadshows, the Growth Hub is hitting the road again, traveling the region to bring the best of local business support to a town near you.
Partnering with NatWest Accelerator, and joined by Business Support Advisors from North Yorkshire Council and City of York Council, the Growth Hub Roadshow is set to showcase what business support really looks like.
Join us amongst the stunning scenery of Dalby Forest, on Tuesday 22 September, 9:30am – 3:30pm. Connect with local businesses and meet the team, while enjoying the breath taking view.
We’ll explore the challenges facing the Visitor Economy and share ideas you can put into practice, through practical business support and a friendly Q&A.
Each event will:
- Focus on a business-relevant theme.
- Showcase business support in action, with a live Q&A.
- Feature a hands-on activity to get you thinking.
- Provide opportunities to meet the team, partners and service providers.
- Give you the chance to enjoy a free lunch and meet like-minded people.
