Help shape Suffolk’s economic strategy
The Suffolk Business Board is a newly formed board, tasked with developing an economic strategy and action plan for Suffolk.
Suffolk County Council, on behalf of the Business Board, are putting together a series of workshops with businesses and stakeholders across Suffolk. To ensure the strategy supports the County’s small businesses to grow, it is vital that their needs are recognised and understood.
Although booking has now closed for these workshops, FSB will be feeding into these workshops. If you would like to share your views, you can email [email protected] or contact your Development Manager, Candy Richards, at [email protected]
