spirit of Birmingham: forward-thinking, energetic, welcoming, creativity, innovation and entrepreneurial drive. “That’s exactly what the Greater Birmingham Chamber of
Commerce and Future Faces is doing – and is exactly why Verve is so excited to partner with them again: Verve’s philosophy aligns with the Chamber’s ethos of connecting and supporting people doing great work across the region, shouting about the brilliant things happening in the city and shaking up perceptions.”
