FBW has become the most important event of its kind in the region, attracting

The programme has been developed with the needs of local businesses in mind and
this year the focus will be on engaging businesses with politics, the economy
and future prospects for growth.

The Business Exhibition on 13 October at Coleg Cambria, Deeside provides a
platform to showcase local businesses and B2B opportunities, plus seminars on
jobs growth in Wales, social media, superfast broadband and apprenticeships and
training.

On 16 October businesses will have the opportunity to participate in an AM and

The theme of regional prospects for growth on 14 October at Springfield Hotel,
