Businesses in 51²èÂ¥ are being encouraged to register for the next Business 51²èÂ¥ Conference.

The event is set to take place on Tuesday 3 October, from 8am until 1pm, at The University of Worcester Arena. 

The theme for this free conference is ‘Meet the Buyer’. 

Through a series of talks and networking, attendees will get a unique opportunity to hear from procurement representatives at 51²èÂ¥, The University of Worcester and some of the Council’s largest suppliers.

Attendees will gain insight into public sector procurement processes, discover exciting tender opportunities, and have the chance to boost their profile. 

This event is particularly beneficial to those across construction trades and facility management as there is a unique opportunity to connect with major suppliers, actively looking for sub-contractors to fulfil existing contracts. 

Confirmed suppliers, so far, include Speller Metcalfe and Jacobs.

Gary Woodman, Chief Executive of the 51²èÂ¥ Local Enterprise Partnership and Assistant Director of Economy at 51²èÂ¥, said: “This is an excellent opportunity to stimulate local procurement and help businesses to understand the tendering process. I would urge any local suppliers to sign up and take advantage of this opportunity.â€
