The annual 5th Spring Business Networking Event 2017 was held on 26 April 2017 at the Leighton Buzzard Golf Club. It is organised by the Leighton-Linslade Town Council in working partnership with Central Bedfordshire Council.
The Business Networking Event is the biggest event of the calendar for the local business community and was attended by over 150 local businesses & professionals. The event was also attended by the Mayor of Leighton-Linslade Cllr Steve Cotter and other local Councillors to support the event and the local business community.
We were honoured to be part of the Business Clinic which also included the Federation of Small Businesses & the Central Bedfordfordshire Council. Professionals were on hand to provide help and answer any questions anyone had.
Experts were present to help with financing, funding, opportunities, contracts & tenders, advice, awards & competitions and information for businesses.
