‘Now that’s what I call Lancashire 2025’ is the theme for a great celebration of business across the county.
Lancashire Business Day is returning on November 27 this year between noon and 5pm at Burnley FC’s Turf Moor stadium.
The business community’s celebration of #LancashireDay has a chart-topping theme as we bring together our ‘greatest hits’ of Lancashire Business View magazine in 2025.
And that includes blockbuster panel from the Lancashire business world looking to hit all the right chords for the audience.
Richard Slater, chairman of Lancashire Business View, said: “We’re hoping interviews and lots of opportunities to connect with new contacts and develop relationships will be music to the ears of our audience.”
Rossendale based marketing agency +24 was headline sponsor in 2024 and is returning to support the event this year.
Dave Walker, managing director of +24, said: “It’s incredibly important to us to celebrate businesses in Lancashire with our colleagues, peers and associates.
“Lancashire has a thriving and incredibly varied economy that we should be proud of, celebrate and shout about.
“We're proud to have our business based here in Lancashire, servicing clients from all over the country from our stunning county.
“Lancashire Business Day gives us an opportunity to down tools, celebrate, do a little networking and have fun.”
Patrons for the event will be Beever and Struthers and Vital Heating Solutions.
A spokesman for Beever and Struthers said: “This event is an important celebration of everything that makes Lancashire a special place to live, work and grow.
“It brings together local leaders, innovators and change-makers who share a passion for the county’s success.
“Supporting Lancashire Business Day reflects our commitment to fostering regional growth, innovation and collaboration, while providing the opportunity to connect with peers, share insights and celebrate the achievements that make Lancashire such a thriving business community.”
David Heap, managing director of Vital Heating Solutions, said: “We believe it’s vital to showcase the strength and innovation within Lancashire, and this event does exactly that.
“In the past, we often looked outside the region for certain services, but by attending events like this, we’ve discovered outstanding local businesses to collaborate with.
“Supporting our local economy is important to us, not only as a growing company but as a leader in low-carbon and Net Zero solutions for heating, ventilation, cooling and BMS systems.”
Lancashire Mind also returns as the charity partner.
David Dunwell, chief executive of Lancashire Mind, said: "Lancashire Business Day is an amazing opportunity for people to come together, connect and learn from one another.
“Last year, the partnership allowed us to raise our profile so more individuals and organisations know where and how to access mental health support when they need it.
“Thanks to the generosity of guests the event also raised a brilliant £1,600. This amount means our dedicated team could go into a school and deliver, for example, our 10-week Bounce Forward resilience programme to one and a half classes.
“That's 45 children equipped with skills and strategies that they can carry with them throughout their lives, making them more likely to ‘bounce forward’ through tough times."
