In addition, this exhibition will host 10 business support groups, each offering specialised assistance in various areas crucial to the growth and development of SMEs in the region. These groups are set to provide the support needed to overcome challenges and seize opportunities.
There will be a series of informative sessions that delve into critical topics such as zero carbon initiatives and sustainability practices. Attendees will also benefit from hearing success stories from fellow West Yorkshire SMEs. These inspirational accounts will shed light on their business journeys, offering valuable lessons and a source of motivation.
