Flintshire County Council’s flagship business event, Flintshire Business Week, will be launched on Thursday 4 June at Soughton Hall in Northop. Flintshire Business Week (FBW) 2015, now in its ninth year, will take place from 13 to 16 October, with the Flintshire Business Awards 2015 taking place on 23 October. FBW, in association with AGS Security Systems and Westbridge Furniture, is one of the most important events of its kind in the region, attracting around 2,000 businesses every year. It supports the business community in the county and, increasingly, the wider region, to promote their companies, to develop trading opportunities and to raise the profile of the area as a place to invest. This year’s FBW will begin on 13 October with a launch event at Coleg Cambria. The Flintshire Business Awards will take place in Soughton Hall on Friday 23 October. Councillor Derek Butler, Cabinet Member for Economic Development said: “The Council works tirelessly to put our businesses of all sizes on the map and Flintshire Business Week has been the highlight of the County’s business calendar for the last nine years. “We are also fortunate to have Flintshire’s business ambassador, Lord Barry Jones, as our president. “I’d like to thank all the businesses that support Flintshire Business Week, and encourage everyone to come along to this year’s events in October.
