Events picture gallery Expo whets appetite for business


A business expo hosted by Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce proved there is a “huge appetite” for doing business face to face. Around 800 delegates and 80 exhibitors


attended the Chamber’s Autumn Expo at Edgbaston stadium. A wide range of sectors including


conferencing and events, digital, creative, manufacturing, hotels and hospitality and events were all represented at the Expo, which was sponsored by Openreach. Seminars from Openreach, Virgin Trains and


the Urban Growth Company (UGC) also attracted big audiences. Pictured at the event are: 1. Kelli Joyner-Linton of Chamberlink publishers Kemps makes a point to an attendee; 2. Crowe UK’s exhibition stand featured an unusual wire game, which is being demonstrated by Gregory Major; 3. Lisa Chaney of UGC gets expansive during her presentation; and 4.
