Greater Manchester Business Fair open to all

Businesses and budding entrepreneurs from across the region are being invited to take part in the Greater Manchester Business Fair at Salford Community Stadium.
The original event on July 4, has been postponed due to the General Election.
It will now take place from 10.30am-3pm on Thursday, July 11, at the Salford Community AJ Bell Stadium in Stadium Way, M30 7EY.
The fair is one of the most well-established business events in the area and it has been bringing local companies together to meet, learn and network in a friendly but professional environment since 2011.

It is organised by Liverpool BA, which has held similar events across the North West since 2002.

Supporters and sponsors include Faster Britain, Salford Community Stadium, Business Connect Magazine, Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce, and Elite Business.
The main feature is a business-to-business exhibition with companies from the local area and beyond showcasing their products and services. But there is also a strong business support focus to the day, with free seminars and workshops on a range of interesting business topics, a networking session at 1pm, start-up support, and one-to-one business advice from industry experts and professional bodies.

As always, the event and all features are free to attend, and all businesses and budding entrepreneurs are welcome to take part.
