LBV covers

The latest edition of Lancashire’s premier business publication is out.

Issue 119 of Lancashire Business View is packed with news, opinion and features as it celebrates business and industry in the Red Rose County.

Taking centre stage in the big interview section is Andrew Graham, managing director of Graham and Brown, talking about how a digital transformation has swept through the Blackburn-based decorating business.

Also, the popular Hotspot feature shines the spotlight on the Ribble Valley as the ‘hidden valley’ and we speak to businesses about how it is a great place to run a business and also finding out about the challenges they face.

The magazine also brings businesses together in round table and panel discussion events.

The newest publication features discussions between firms in the recruitment and retention, events and conferencing and energy sectors.

Also, Steve Peters managing director of Blackpool Airport about how the airport is very much open for business.

Richard Slater, chairman of Lancashire Business View, said: “We have always prided ourselves on being a champion for Lancashire, by listening to businesses and making sure their voices are heard.

“We also love to talk to the people in positions of influence about our thriving business sectors.

“This edition is no different as we have an interesting interview with Katie Day, strategy director for Transport for the North.

“She talks about the clear vision for transforming the transport network in Lancashire and spells out the prizes it could deliver.

“We also have a round-up of stories from our Lancashire Built-Environment Conference in Blackpool, finding out about the big projects in the county and hearing from a variety of speakers.”

Joanne Hindley, sales director, said: “What a way to bring down the curtain on another year of publications with Lancashire Business View.

“We’ve already started on the next issue and we love to enable businesses to raise their profile, celebrate the incredible achievements of the industries within our county and make valuable connections.”
