Business supportFree networking event in Royton for local businesses
Oldham Council is inviting local businesses in Royton to sign up to a free business networking event.

The event, hosted by the Council, will give businesses the chance to engage with others in the district, gather local information about support available to them, identify supply chain opportunities and network.

Attendees will get to hear updates about key initiatives from the council, the Here for Business support programme and more.

The event will take place on Wednesday 1 February, 5-7pm at Mazzo in Royton (43 Radcliffe St, Royton, Oldham OL2 6QL).

These will be the second of several networking opportunities, not only in Royton and but across the other local districts too – just keep an eye on the Council’s social pages and in our Business Newsletter for dates.

Councillor Shoab Akhtar, Cabinet Member for Employment and Enterprise, said:

“The event will give entrepreneurs a great opportunity to get invaluable information about the local business landscape and sectors.

“We know these are difficult times for many businesses and the council, along with our partners, want to offer all the support we can.

“The event will be packed with advice on what support is available and our dedicated council offers will be on hand to explain what we’re doing to boost the economy throughout Oldham.

“I’d urge people to join us, meet their business neighbours and make valuable local connections.”

The networking events are free, and open to all businesses from the districts they are hosted in. Participants should register to reserve their place on Eventbrite here

Oldham Council has a free and flexible support offer to help make a real difference to your business.

Much of this package is unique to the borough and includes grant funding, access to finance, growth advice, workforce development and networking opportunities.
