Advertising-supported features

Our supported features are an excellent way to showcase your expertise and promote your brand to our 50,000 readers. 

AI and Cyber Report 

In the May/June 2026 edition of Lancashire Business View our question time style debate will bring cross sector panels to challenge assumptions on AI and Cyber. Lead the conversation: Joint sponsorship of the AI & Cyber event includes a seat on the panel debate, an opportunity to invite key business targets to the audience, brand association, profile raising and advertorial/advertising space within the review feature in the May/June issue. 

Roundtable: Rural and Food

Lancashire’s rural economy is powered by food and drink manufacturing, farming, leisure and visitor economy businesses. These industries face pressures from costs, workforce and sustainability, but also see opportunities in innovation and export. Commercial opportunities include: Sole or joint sponsorship of the debate and feature to include brand alignment, participation in the debate, an opportunity to propose guests/key business targets to invite to the roundtable and advertising space within the three page review feature in the May/June issue.

Insight: Transport and Logistics 

Efficient movement of goods and people underpins Lancashire’s competitiveness.
