Growing a business through tenders, branding, web design and product development will be the topics up for discussion at the next free business networking event in Chatteris.

Organised by Fenland District Council, the event will be held at the South Fens Business Centre on September 5 from 10.30am to midday.

The session is part of a series of bi-monthly meetings launched that aim to help local work together and discuss local challenges, with the added bonus of hearing from expert guest speakers on topical business issues.

September’s speakers will include eXceeding, a leading bid writing company, award-winning digital marketing agency TinFish Creative and Anglia Ruskin University.

Cllr Ralph Butcher, portfolio holder for growth at the council, said: “We’ve been very pleased with the turnout at previous events and the speakers continue to show the expertise that’s available in Fenland to help companies and the wider economy grow.”

Attendance is free but delegates are encouraged to register. To register, visit www.fenlandforbusiness.co.uk.
