Leicester Business Festival 2017

THE REGION'S LARGEST BUSINESS EVENT
In 2017, after three successful years, the Leicester Business Festival is now a sustainable, self-funded and independent initiative operated for and by the community in the interests of the region in which it operates and serves. Ownership was gifted to the local community at the end of 2016, via a purposely- established Community Interest Company (CIC) under the leadership of Scott Knowles as Chairman and other private sector Directors.

Produced with the support of our media partners Leicester Mercury, the
LBF2017 Official Programme contained vital information about the business festival, its development over the years and why Leicester & Leicestershire is the beacon for UK inward investment.
Over 100,000 copies were distributed all over the region; from our venue partners to SME's, hotels, conference centre's and local authorities - the business festival had established a strong presence before day one had even kicked off.
