THE FUTURE OF BUSINESS IN SALFORD

A unique Chamber event. Hear from business leaders about why they are investing in the city.

The Salford Business Network (SBN) has been established by the Chamber to ensure that local business voices are heard and that key messages are spread throughout the business community. Lead by the Chamber’s Salford President Tony Smith, Commercial Director at The Lowry, we are a group of proactive Salford business leaders with a determination to identify opportunities to improve the City of Salford with a focus on commerce.

Through consultation with Chamber members we have identified key challenges in the Salford Business community:

Transport infrastructure,
Employment, skills and training
Ensuring a city-wide strategy for investment and development
As part of our strategy to address these issues, the SBN will be holding a panel discussion to explore and debate business insight and solutions. This event will provide a positive platform to facilitate a conversation between policy makers, and the business community.
