Continuing to offer a programme of inspiring workshops, masterclasses and networking opportunities, in person and online, Fife Business Week will bring together private and public sector organisations in a bid to promote opportunities, especially in Fife’s key sectors such as, Advanced Manufacturing, Food & Drink, Tourism, Energy, Fintech and Construction.
This year’s programme of events will be linked around current key priorities in Fife’s Economic Strategy: Supporting Businesses to Grow; Investing in Business Premises and Infrastructure; Adapting to Agile Business Models; Delivering Skills, Training and Fair Employment.
The highlight of the week remains with Meet the Buyer, held on Thursday, 7th November, which always attracts large numbers and this year there will be new topics covered throughout the week including How to get ready for UK’s new flexible working legislation, allowing employers to prepare for the Employment Relations (Flexible Working Bill). A House Builders Forum and Hydrogen Opportunities for Fife Businesses will also feature in this year’s line-up.
Pamela Stevenson, Service Manager, Economic Development, Fife Council commented, “Our Fife Business Week has over the years grown to be the major feature in the Fife business events calendar. This year, events will remain focused on current key topics that may be affecting Fife entrepreneurs, business start-ups and employers alike. Importantly too, events will highlight future business opportunities through supply chain and market developments. We will also continue to strive towards Community Wealth Building, fostering a culture of Enterprise and Innovation, whilst working towards Net Zero.”
She added, “This 15th Fife Business Week is an excellent opportunity for businesses to meet and learn while seeking out new openings and networks and there is something valuable for every type of organisation, large or small.”
