Laurence Associates at Business Fest South West Westpoint

A brilliant day at Business Fest Southwest at Westpoint this week.

It was great to see such a strong turnout and a real buzz around the event. Richard spent the day connecting with businesses from across the region, having some genuinely valuable conversations around upcoming projects, collaboration opportunities and future planning.

Events like this are always a reminder of how much is happening locally and how important it is to take the time to step away, meet people face to face and share ideas.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped to chat with Richard, it was great to meet you. If you didn’t get a chance to connect on the day but would like to continue the conversation, we would love to hear from you.
