A key feature of Big Business North Wales is its structure around multiple high-growth economic zones, each reflecting priority sectors within the regional economy. These include areas such as digital and AI, advanced manufacturing, tourism, construction, finance, skills and workforce, and net zero energy. This zoned approach allows attendees to explore targeted opportunities, gain sector-specific insights, and connect with relevant businesses and stakeholders.
Beyond the exhibition floor, the event delivers a programme of keynote speakers, workshops, and interactive “hands on” activities, offering practical insights and expert knowledge to support business growth. Dedicated networking and social spaces are also designed to encourage meaningful connections and collaboration throughout the day.
Importantly, the event also plays a role in supporting the future workforce by connecting students, graduates, and jobseekers with local employers, helping to bridge skills gaps and strengthen regional talent pipelines.
Overall, Big Business North Wales is more than an exhibition—it is a strategic platform that celebrates the region’s strengths, fosters collaboration, and drives sustainable economic development across North Wales.
Big Business North Wales is a flagship regional business exhibition designed to bring together the diverse and growing business community across North Wales. Held at Venue Cymru, the event is positioned as one of the largest and most ambitious business gatherings ever delivered in the region, creating a central platform for collaboration, innovation, and economic growth. This event now has its own dedicated bilingual website www.bbnw.uk
