British Chambers of Commerce champion innovation and creativity
2008-01-18

It’s been an exciting start to 2008. As this year’s Business Convention in Liverpool continues to grow into one of the most significant business events of the year the Telegraph Business Club has joined us as our national media partner; Liverpool has launched itself as European Capital of Culture; and we have extended the early booking discount.

This is your chance to join an audience of senior business professionals, challenge the policy makers and gain practical support and ideas that you can apply in your organisation.

Our truly world class speakers will include local talent from Sir Terry Leahy, Chief Executive of Tesco, John Fleming, CEO, Ford Europe and Professor Phil Redmond CBE, Founder of Mersey Television. They will be joined by Sir Michael Rake, Chairman of BT, Christopher Banks CBE, Chair of LSC and Digby, Lord Jones, Minister of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform. Top of our agenda is tackling the issues you face in fostering innovation and creativity within your own organisations and how you can maximise their positive effects to improve competitiveness.

With the extended early booking discount we’ve made it even easier for you to attend. Save more that 15%(link) if you reserve your delegate places before the end of January. Can your business afford you not being there?
