Alec Jones-Hall, founder of Great British Expos, said: “The South West Business Expo is always one of our most popular events during the year, with this year set to be the most anticipated yet. 

“Whilst our virtual exhibitions have provided a unique opportunity during the toughest periods of the pandemic, building face-to-face relationships is still an important part of business, and exhibitions provide an ideal opportunity to do this.

“The return of this year’s business expo will help local businesses spotlight their brand and gain new leads and connections. Along with the exciting programme of seminars and entrepreneurial keynote speakers on offer, exhibiting and attending the Business Expo will provide businesses with a platform to continue recovering and thriving.”
