Highcross is Leicester’s premier shopping destination, billed as “the glamorous heart of Leicester”. With over 80 stores ranging from high fashion to everyday necessities, Highcross has something for everyone and and some of the biggest names in retail, including John Lewis, Apple, Zara and Ted Baker.

Leicester Business Festival is all about bringing the region’s finest businesses together to share best practice and ideas, and showcase everything that Leicester and Leicestershire has to offer.

Significant changes are taking place in the UK economy post-pandemic, particularly in retail. However, exciting times lie ahead as we learn to adapt and come to terms with the new normal.

Jo Tallack is Senior General Manager at Highcross. She said:

“The retail sector in particular has always had to be agile and it’s never truer than now.

“Leicester as a city has displayed so much strength and resilience in the last 18 months and has so much to be proud of.

The Leicester Business Festival is a great means of showcasing our city and I feel privileged to be able to work in such a dynamic city with some amazing people.”
