We want to thank all those who managed to attend our Portsmouth Business Leaders Forum event in Portsmouth Cathedral last Thursday. It was a fantastic event to be part of, and particularly lovely to hold it in such a magnificent setting.
CEO Dave Humphries said “Personally, it was nice to get my first Shaping Portsmouth event under my belt and I was particularly pleased to have both Steff and Kirsty also speaking at the event. Despite being nervous about speaking I thought they both did a really great job. I am very grateful to Steff, Kirsty and Matt for all their support with this event and for helping to making it such a success.”
We would also like to thank our guest speakers for the event: Jane Lamer from Portsmouth City Council; Alex Latham-Reynolds from My Covenant / Spectra; Lauren Bumstead from the Portsmouth City Council Care Leavers Team and Maureen Catcheside from Smart Training & Recruitment.
A big thank-you too to the representatives of our three new partners who introduced themselves: Sally Arscott from Solent Mind; Michelle Leggatt from Mindworks Marketing; and Joe Taffurelli from Liquid Friday.
We would like to thank Richard Abraham, CP Robinson, Dr Anthony Cane and the entire Portsmouth Cathedral team for being such great hosts. Please do contact the Cathedral team directly via their website, or through us if you would like to consider using it as a venue for your own conference. Although we opted to have a theatre-style set up the Cathedral team can also set it up in cabaret-style if tables are your preference.
We mentioned our forthcoming event on – How The Government’s Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012 and The New Procurement Act 2023 Will Affect Your Business with SVRE at Lakeside on the morning of Thursday 16th May 2024. For those interested in this event the booking link is here.
