Buy Yorkshire event with over 5000 attendees predicted to generate £8 million

Buy Yorkshire, the biggest B2B exhibition conference in the North of England already has over 5000 delegates signed up and is predicted to generate over £8 million in deals.

Guest speakers will include Gary Verity who brought Le Tour to Yorkshire, Paul Lindley of Ella’s Kitchen, as well as Janet Street Porter, former editor of The Indepedent on Sunday, and Karren Brady Small Busines ambassador to the government, and vice-chairman of West Ham United.

Geoff Shepherd of the Yorkshire Mafia said: “Buy Yorkshire is the best regionally based business event in the UK. Over 5000 delegates register, representing over £500bn of organisational revenue.

“Our keynote panel on average creates more business value than Dragons’ Den. We’re attracting speakers like Karren Brady now, it’s far and away the best speaker line up Yorkshire has seen in many years and we don’t charge anyone a penny to attend.

“We’re expecting another sold out exhibition which just goes to show the spirit, resilience and positivity of our regional business community.

“We’ve also invited 2 charity partners to join us: Simon on the Streets and Yorkshire Cancer Research. It’s important to give, but it’s also important to find ways to integrate good causes into our everyday business lives. That’s why we’ve invited theses brilliant organisations to take part in the show.”

The event takes place on 13th and 14th May 2014 at The Royal Armouries and New Dock Hall. For further informaton or to book for free or sponsor the event click here.
