On Thursday 19 October, West Midlands firms are invited to attend a valuable breakfast workshop and learn how they could tap into a multi-million pound works package and supply opportunities aligned to the expansion of the Midland Metro.

Delegates will gain an understanding of the West Midlands' 'Better Connectivity' masterplan, get a preview of HVM City – a recently launched contracts / opportunity gateway - and become aware of the Skills Support for the Workforce programme, which is a valuable funding initiative for SMEs to develop the skills needed to grow their business and help improve their work-winning skills.

This free event presents a great opportunity to network with likeminded professionals and will give a smart route and valuable insight into working on this iconic project. It's a must-attend event for business owners, directors, business improvement and skills development professionals.

Where: Sandwell Council House, Council Chambers, Freeth Street, Oldbury B69 3DB

When: Thursday 19 October 2017, 7am to 9:30am (registration starts from 6:50am)
