The Leicester Business Festival takes place from 2 to 13 November and there’s just one more month to submit your applications before the website portal closes on Friday 4 September. LBF2020 is the go-to event for entrepreneurs, those looking to start a new business, expand their business, business finance and for those looking to sell their business too.
“Event organisers have a choice as to how they would like to run their events. They can be digital; a ‘hybrid’, such as live streaming with a limited number of attendees, or a purely physical event, which, at the current time, is being permitted by Government from October. Our recent LBF webinars covered this in detail and are available on the LBF website to watch,” said Richard Osborn, regional director at Excello Law, and a director of the LBF Community Interest Company (CiC).
“We all recognise that Leicester has suffered further setbacks with the extended lockdown, but I feel that this region is resilient and collectively, we can get our economy moving again. The (Leicester) Business Festival is one of the most critical catalysts to re-energise the business community and I would encourage individuals and businesses to capitalise on the opportunity to get involved.”
LBF events can be about anything so long as they stand to help or benefit other businesses. So far there are already almost 40 events in the programme, which are a mix of physical and digital events.
