Sefton Economic Forum events, organised by InvestSefton, usually attract at least 100 delegates and more than 20 providers in the Growth Hub Marketplace.

December’s event, which starts at 9am, will cover a range of topics including a Bank of England economic update from Ken Clark.

Following the forum, businesses will be able to explore the Sefton Growth Hub Business Marketplace. This will offer more information about funded business support including skills development, digital marketing, and carbon reduction.

Cllr Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills, said:

“Sefton businesses of any size and from any sector are invited to come along to this informative event. It also offers a chance to network and find out what support is available to them through our Invest Sefton service in the Growth Hub Marketplace.”
