South West Business Expo 2018 in Exeter

Simon Wilkins • Feb 28, 2018

We’re attending the SouthWest Business Expo in Exeter next month. The annual event is being held at the Westpoint arena in Exeter for the first time, meaning a bigger and better show than ever before. Over 260 exhibitors and 3000 delegates are expected to attend. It’s our first time and we’re really looking forward to the opportunity to speak to so many local businesses.

Business in Exeter and the South West

 

The South West is a thriving area for business. The Heart of the South West Local Enterprise Partnership indicated that in 2017 there were 71,250 active enterprises in Devon & Somerset , with 89.1% of these being micro businesses (less than 10 employees). From 2016 to 2017 the South West experienced a 3.4% growth in businesses according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS). At QuayClick we’re proud to be based in an area with a flourishing business ecosystem that’s also a great place to live. Check out our recent blog post for more on why we think Exeter is such a great place to start a business.
 

About business expos

 

Business expos are varied events and combine elements of conferences and trade shows to give both enterprises and delegates a diverse day out of the office. The South West Business Expo combines talks, demonstrations, speed networking and trade stands. The range of businesses exhibiting in Exeter is very diverse, covering everything from accounting to hospitality, food& drink, product development and PR. Details for all exhibitors are available at the South West Business Expo’s website.

Benefits of attending a business expo

 

Business events are a great opportunity to network and meet potential customers and industry peers. It’s also a chance to find out about new businesses and products in the region and catch up on the latest trends and theories in the marketplace.
 

What we’re looking forward to…

 

We’ve got a stand at this year’s Expo in Exeter and as a new business it’s an important event for us. We want to raise awareness of our brand in the local area and talk to other businesses about what we could do for them. But we’re also just looking forward to the chance to network with other business people and organisations and to have some good conversations about digital marketing and working in Exeter and the South West.

 

Come say hello…
