Now in its 12th year, Humber Business Week (Biz Week) showcases the wealth of talent, entrepreneurship, vision and future potential of our region through a diverse programme of events which both inspire and educate.From high-profile keynote speakers, expos, conferences, workshops, tours, celebration receptions – and of course the odd networking breakfast and lunch – Europe’s longest established festival of business has grown year on year since being established in 2004.
Humber Business Week provides an opportunity for all companies – no matter how big or small – to acquire new knowledge, gain better understanding and insights into key developments and to improve their networks.
