South West Expo comes to Bristol

By Anita Jaynes on 22 November, 2016

Following on from the success of their Swindon Expo, Great British Expos will be hosting their first South West Expo in Bristol on Thursday December 1.

The business show will take place at Ashton Court Mansion, Bristol between 10am-3pm.

Over 900 regional businesses are expected to attend on the day, with 80+ exhibitors, five keynote speakers and seven workshops. The event is free to attend, but registration is essential.

Alec Jones-Hall, director of Great British Expos said: “We are really excited about our first Bristol show. This year we celebrated four years of success with our Swindon Expo and couldn’t think of a better way of marking the anniversary than with the launch of a new show. Business in Bristol and the South West is buoyant and we wanted to put on a show to generate new relationships, more sales across the region and to up-skill the workforce. We have a timetable of exciting workshops aimed at improving your skills and knowledge in areas that will really benefit your business, such as a LinkedIn Masterclass, IP workshop and behaviour profiling class.”

South West Expo has secured some high profile speakers including Mark Wright, winner of BBC’s The Apprentice in 2014, Brad Burton, founder of 4N Networking, Jackie Chappell, the first woman of British Rail and Juliane Ponan, award-winning young entrepreneur and CEO of superfoods brand Creative Nature.
