Some of the Midlands’ largest public sector buyers are coming to West Bromwich to meet and get to know local businesses. The networking event is being organised by Klick Business Solutions and takes place at the Hawthorns on Black Country Day – Thursday 14 July.

This is a great opportunity for businesspeople in our borough to talk about what they do with buyers who spend billions of pounds every year in the Midlands on goods, services and works. Confirmed attendees include representatives from Walsall, Sandwell, Wolverhampton, Dudley and Birmingham councils; the Black Country, Sandwell and West Birmingham and Dudley NHS Trusts; Network Rail, HS2, the University of Wolverhampton and facilities management company Mitie.

The event, which runs from 10am to 3pm, also involves workshops, training and presentations until 3pm. It is free to attend, but attendees need to email Andrea Childs at Klick Business Solutions as soon as possible to express an interest in attending, and to be sent a questionnaire to complete. Tickets are limited, and restricted to one person per business. Midlands companies will be given priority.
