Local businesses who want to spread the word about their services can now register for a stand at Open 4 Business 2015.  This key business event, hosted by Mid Sussex District Council, will take place on Thursday 22nd of October in East Grinstead.

Open 4 Business 2015 gives business representatives a first-hand opportunity to find out what new prospects exist within Mid Sussex and meet other people running businesses in the District. The event also allows relaxed and informal networking with attendees sharing experiences and promoting their particular business to other local companies.

A key part of the event is the superb opportunity it gives for local businesses to promote themselves. Trade stands are now available for businesses in, or offering services to, Mid Sussex. Companies are urged to apply for a stand by Friday 11th September. Trade stands cost £55 + vat and the online booking system is available at www.midsussex.gov.uk/open4business

“Open 4 Business is a key part of business support in the area,” said Councillor Gary Marsh, Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Property. “I hope to see many local business people taking advantage of the skills and information which will be available there, as well as sharing their own experiences.”

Open 4 Business supports the growth and development of successful businesses in Mid Sussex. The event is run by Mid Sussex District Council, in association with Burgess Hill Business Parks Association, East Grinstead Business Association, Haywards Heath and District Business Association. The Federation of Small Businesses and Sussex Chamber of Commerce sponsor the event, giving a platform for local business people to share information and develop contacts.

Jeremy Quin MP (Horsham) will attend and open the event.
