‘Planes, Trains and Automobiles’ is the overall theme of the Derby Business Expo. Rolls-Royce is just one of the highly reputable companies attending the exhibition, which will deliver informative speeches about their respective sectors. Marc Priestley, former mechanic of Formula One team McLaren Racing, will also be on hand to talk about his insights of the fast paced motorsport environment. Dean Jackson, managing director of Derby based Huub, Claire Brumby, founder of Scrubby’s Crisps and Susan Hallam, Managing Director of Hallam Internet, will be amongst the other high profiled speakers at the event.

Councillor Martin Rawson, Cabinet Member for Communities and City Centre Regeneration, said: “We’re pleased to be supporting the Derby Business Expo which will be an inspiring event for the city’s business community. The Expo is all about local companies and organisations, so it’s the perfect opportunity to network and realise the business potential we have in Derby and the local area.”

Russell Scanlan Insurance Broking, Harper HR, Flint Bishop and The Bowmer Kirkland Group are just some of the 80 fantastic companies that will be exhibiting at this prestigious event at The Roundhouse.
