With over 30 businesses and organisations from numerous different areas of the business community exhibiting, delegates were able to explore ways to develop their own operation.

It was a great opportunity to raise our business profile, generate sales and network with companies from our local area.

There were a number of workshops running throughout the day which were free to attend for delegates visiting the exhibition: -

  • Oxley & Coward Solicitors, Employment Update 2013

  • BT, Taming today’s technologies

  • SYITF, Are you missing out? Export opportunities on your doorstep

  • The Source Skills Academy, Customer service

  • Barnsley College, Apprenticeship schemes
