Businesses from across the region will descend on Bristol later this month for the city's biggest business exhibition and networking event —
with exhibition space selling out in record time.
AMC Communications, Vodafone, Destination Bristol, COSTCO, At-Bristol, BUPA, Hills Waste Solutions, City of Bristol College and Oceana nightclub are among the 144 local companies and organisations that have “snapped up” stands at the forthcoming Best of Bristol Business Exhibition on February 28.
The event at Ashton Gate is designed to promote trading between regional businesses. Up to 1,500 people are expected to attend — a rise of 25 per cent on the previous year.
The Lord Mayor, Councillor Geoff Gollop, will officially open the exhibition at 10am at the Ashton Gate Conference Centre.
Organiser Neil Kinnerly said the exhibition — the 10th event of its kind to date — has received “unprecedented” levels of interest from businesses in the South West wishing to take part.
He said: “The Best of Bristol Exhibition in February marks a very special milestone for us, as it is the 10th event of its kind so far.
“It is also set to be our most successful one to date, with all exhibition space selling out in record time.
“The exhibition has proved a major draw for businesses from across the region looking to promote their services or source new suppliers, and we are expecting a massive turnout with visitor numbers at least 25 per cent higher than last year.”
The event will offer visitors a variety of free business seminars including those on Mobile Marketing, Integrating Mobile Technology with Internet, The Bribery Act, sales training, and Health and Safety legislation — presented by John Conrad from Bristol City Council.
Key partners include Bristol City Council, public relations agency Palamedes PR, Bristol City Football Club, Destination Bristol and N3 Display Graphics.
The event itself is sponsored by AMC Communications.
Mr Kinnerly said the exhibition will be supporting St Peter’s Hospice, with representatives collecting funds for the charity on the day.
He added: “The Best of Bristol Exhibition is an important networking event for all and every business in the city and region. It’s a one-stop-shop that could build vital bridges between organisations, and help new businesses gain the support they so desperately require.”
The Best of Bristol Business Exhibition takes place on Tuesday, February 28, from 10am–3.30pm, at Bristol City Football Club Exhibition Centre, Ashton Gate.
Though exhibition space has now sold out, there are still free spaces available for delegates to attend.
