  • Roundtable discussions
  • Dedicated business exhibition forum
  • Networking opportunities and face to face introductions and discussions

Who should attend?

Event attendees will be drawn from Hertfordshire and the wider Eastern region and will be limited to 100 businesses, so booking early is essential.
