Bridgwater is a week away from the ground-breaking event that will promote its vibrant business landscape. A collaboration between Bridgwater Town Council and Bridgwater Chamber of Commerce, proudly presents the inaugural Bridgwater Business Expo, an extraordinary celebration showcasing the very best of business in and around Bridgwater! The event will be opened by newly elected Deputy Mayor Cllr Jacqui Solomon (Labour, Eastover) who says “I am thrilled to have this opportunity to be part of this inaugural event.  Bridgwater’s historic and continuing prominence in business and manufacturing has much to be celebrated, this is a great time to be promoting the training and skills that we have in abundance.”

This momentous occasion is set to take place on 9 June 2023, at Bridgwater Town Hall, marking a significant milestone in the Town’s journey towards becoming Somerset’s undisputed business growth capital. Bridgwater & Taunton College, the region’s premier educational centre, is the headline sponsor, dedicating its support to the local business community’s unrivalled growth and development.

The Bridgwater Business Expo promises a platform for businesses of all sizes to connect with the vibrant local business community, elevating brand awareness and forging invaluable connections with industry peers. It’s not just an event for established businesses; the Expo warmly welcomes members of the public who are keen to explore and learn more about the thriving local business landscape.

The Bridgwater Business Expo will burst into action with a Breakfast Networking event featuring the Bridgwater & West Somerset MP Ian Liddell-Grainger and the Deputy Mayor of Bridgwater Cllr Jacqui Solomon. This will be followed by an array of exhibition spaces, a dedicated networking and breakout room for forging connections, two main stage panel discussions featuring esteemed industry experts, and an astounding line-up of four seminar sessions designed to equip businesses with the knowledge and skills to thrive.
