The Lancashire Business Festival is set to showcase a fantastic range of business related events taking place across the county during March 2018.
The region is well-known for hosting a wide variety of events which offer everything from business support to promotion of local services and products and the celebration of innovative organisations in Lancashire.
Local organisations supporting this exciting initiative include the North & Western Lancashire Chamber of Commerce, Shout Network, the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), MHA Moore and Smalley, Lancashire Business View and Boost.
This year “Manufacturing Week” will play a key part in the Lancashire Business Festival. With its long heritage of manufacturing, Lancashire continues to be at the heart of the UK’s manufacturing sector.
One of the Manufacturing Week’s key supporters is accountants MHA Moore & Smalley. Danny Houghton, Partner in the company, commented, “Manufacturing within Lancashire is vibrant and diverse and the Manufacturing Week showcases Lancashire’s talent, brings in quality speakers from across the globe and offers an excellent opportunity for like-minded businesses to network and learn from each other. Bringing the Manufacturing Week into the Lancashire Business Festival opens it up to a wider business audience and the more people who know what a success story Lancashire manufacturing is, the better!”.
