Sub36 event

If you share a love for Lancashire Business View’s Sub36 and coffee, then sign up to the first event on Valentine’s Day.

The Sub36 campaign highlights Lancashire's young business talent and gives credit to outstanding workplaces that empower the younger generation to thrive.

The first event will take place at Atkinsons Coffee Roasters in Lancaster on February 14, from 9 - 11:30am.

Delegates will enjoy a tour of the roastery followed by a Latte Art Workshop, providing a fun and interactive way to network while honing coffee skills.

The next event on June 11 between 3-5pm at the British Jewellery School in Scorton, guests will hear from the founder Rachael Elizabeth Wood, who is a Sub36 member, and get a tour of the studio.

Meanwhile, Pierce and Bowker MINI have announced they will be sponsors of the Sub36 in 2025.

Olivia McCaughran, assistant marketing manager from Lancashire Business View, said: “It is great to have Pierce and Bowker BMW sponsoring the Sub36 this year.

“The Sub36 is a good way for young talent to come together and create a community of trust.

“Also, it is a great place to make good connections in business locally.”

Lauren Myers, marketing executive, Pierce, said: “We are delighted to sponsor the Lancashire Business View Sub36 Networking Events for the second consecutive year.

“It’s fantastic to see how these events have grown, providing an invaluable opportunity for young professionals to connect and collaborate.

“At Pierce, we are passionate about supporting emerging talent and building a business community here in Lancashire.”

Amy Lancaster-Hall, group marketing manager Bowker MINI said: “At Bowker MINI, we believe in celebrating those who are already making waves in business at such a young age.

“The under-36s are the future of our Lancashire economy, and it’s important to shine a light on their achievements.

“We know Lancashire is packed with talented and driven individuals, and Sub36 is a brilliant way to meet and support them. It’s not just about business – it’s about creating connections, and we’re looking forward to meeting the Sub36 members at events this year.”
