Key challenges set out at Business Week launch
HUDDERSFIELD Business Week officially begins on Monday (September 30) with exciting details announced for the highly anticipated launch event.
The launch, hosted at Magic Rock Brewing in Huddersfield town centre and sponsored by Ad:Venture, will see key business professionals from the town give insights into their business as well as discussing the key challenges and triumphs Huddersfield-based businesses face.
The panel will include Claire Paxman of Paxman Coolers, Simon Bodsworth of Daval Furniture, Ray Woolhead of Divine Gin, and Katrina Cliffe of KC Communications and organiser of Huddersfield Business Week. It will be chaired by Charles Brook, of Poppleton and Appleby.
Huddersfield Business Week has been extremely well received so far with almost 40 events submitted by companies across the area.
Organisations including the University of Huddersfield, The Leeds Enterprise Partnership (The LEP) and Huddersfield Giants, are among those hosting events with the aim of putting Huddersfield in the spotlight.
The event has also attracted support from organisations such as the Media Centre, Heritage Exchange and Magic Rock Brewing with free event space available.
Laura Batchelor, client services director at KC Communications, said: “We’re thrilled to have these panellists on board for the launch event.
“As leaders of successful Huddersfield-based businesses we’re excited to hear what insight they can share with us and what they think the future of Huddersfield looks like.”
Huddersfield Business Week is presented by PR and marketing agency KC Communications, after recognising a lack of anything similar in the area to help Huddersfield businesses showcase their achievements.
All Huddersfield Business Week events are free to list as part of the event, with advice on topics ranging from pensions, factory tours, health & wellbeing, marketing, and more on offer.
