James Ashwood, Event Director of SME2017 comments
“We are proud to be partnering with the NEC and delighted to bring this exciting large-scale, 2-day, free to attend, business exhibition and conference format to the Midlands.
Every SME business will benefit from attending.
To grow a business, you need to know who can finance and fund that growth, ‘Smart SMEs’ make their operation faster and more efficient through innovative technology, and then win more customers through sharper marketing. We bring it all together at SME2017”.
High profile speakers
Support for the event is growing daily with speakers and partners confirmed from Birmingham City Council, the LEP Growth Hubs of the West Midlands, The West Midlands Chambers of Commerce, British Business Bank, Start Up Loans and key industry associations who are all showcasing their initiatives and growth help.
Gavin Mason, SME2017 Technology Director adds
“We can see a real change in how SMEs are investing in their business technology.
The days of expensive Capex purchases are making way for cloud based Opex solutions that are real game changers for small businesses.
SME2017 is curating a fantastic selection of service providers who can help transform businesses”.
The SME2017 exhibition focuses on Finance, Funding, Accounting, Business technology/IT, outsourcing and Marketing and will facilitate the biggest B2B networking opportunity of the year.
