After all the planning and pondering, the Business Gateway Roadshow was held last night at Burghfield House Hotel in Dornoch. Over 60 people attended the event which aimed to showcase some of the support available to local businesses and also to find out what the Sutherland business community needs to help it develop over the next few years.
Nine businesses set up Trade Stands providing the catalyst for a lot of networking and a few deals. A packed Question Time session was hosted by STV's Nicola McAlley with Gary Campbell of Environmental Hygiene Products Ltd and Mike Ellis of Helmsdale Charcoal & Coppice talking about their very different businesses but similar experiences.
Musical entertainment was provided by Fiona J MacKenzie and Katie MacKenzie
Thanks to Michelle and Ilona from Enterprise Europe for all their hard work, my colleagues Jennifer, Kenny and Mark for leaving their respective Regions to help out.
There are six more Roadshows to be held across Highland & Moray during the next few weeks. For more information, email Enterprise Europe
