Liverpool will next year host the inaugural International Festival for Business, the largest of its kind in the world.
The idea is to give UK based business the opportunity to grow into the international markets, and the Isle of Man is set to feature prominently during the 2 month event.
Over a million visitors are expected to attend, with representatives from all of the world’s leading industries and business representatives from 125 different countries.
Economic Development Chief Officer Chris Corlett has branded it an excellent opportunity for the Island to showcase the best of e-gaming, financial services, shipping and aerospace.
He told us what his Department are doing to find the best team possible to take to next June’s festival:
