Chamber Business Support & Networking Open Day
19/02/2010
Businesses in Coventry and Warwickshire looking to grow their business after the recession will be able to pick up advice on a range of issues – including accessing funding – at an event next month.
The Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce is holding a Business Support & Networking Open Day at its Oak Tree Conference Centre in Binley on Tuesday, March 16, from 10am until 4pm.
Free of charge to all businesses it will feature advice and information on how to access available funds and business support services for growth; and the chance to meet new contacts and promote the business to a wider audience.
Chamber operations director Dianne Williams said: “Although figures out in January showed the recession is over, there is still much uncertainty in the economy and recovery is expected to be slow.
“The Chamber is keen to help local businesses take advantage of every available opportunity to grow. The day will be packed with seminars and information from organisations with expertise in a wide range of fields.
“Seminars running throughout the day by the Manufacturing Advisory Service (MAS), ACAS, Chamber HR and Health & Safety, Inward Investment, and UK Trade & Investment: will include topics on Business Recovery, Fit for Work Notes, Benefits of Apprentices, Employment Legislation, Exporting & Trading Abroad, plus a range of other subjects.”
Dianne added: “It is great to have so many organisations in the same room all offering help and support to business. Our weathering the storm events during the recession proved a major help for local firms and this event will lend support to those who are struggling and helping those seeking to grow.”
“All businesses are welcome - you don’t need to be a Chamber member- just drop in, speak to advisers, attend seminars or just network over lunch, it’s all free”
