BusinessCloud’s Lancashire Powerhouse event takes place at  Lytham St Anne’s St George’s Day Charity Festival next Wednesday.

Now in its second year, local or regional business owners are welcome to join a debate on some of the important business issues of the day.

Running from 9am to 12.30pm, the half-day conference will hear from some of Lancashire’s leading manufacturers and fast-growing technology companies.

With Article 50 set to be triggered by March the countdown to the UK’s exit from the EU is imminent but what will it mean to the county’s exporters?

Lancashire has a global reputation for manufacturing but how important is the digital tech sector to the region?

These are just some of the questions that will be answered at the conference, which will hear from some of the county’s leading manufacturers and fast-growing technology companies.

It will also look at the importance of the City Deal to the region and explore what needs to happen in terms of job creation and development to fuel Lancashire’s growth and attract investment.
