Venturefest - 8th February 2012
Venturefest is an amazing one-day event designed to showcase and support our region’s most innovative business people. Confirmed at York Racecourse for February 8th 2012.
Entrepreneurs who attend can network and make new contacts, showcase their ideas to 2000+ delegates, talk to investors and support organisations, enter competitions worth thousands of pounds and enjoy exclusive seminars packed full of practical advice.
We look for the best in our region. People working on fantastic science projects, pioneering cutting-edge technology and inventing brilliant products.
Professor Tony Hardy, chairman of Venturefest York, talking about the 2011 said: “The buzz is greater than last year. We got 2,000 through the door last year and we were in recession, but there definitely seems to have been a new level of optimism that augurs well. There is a clear recognition that we in the business world in Yorkshire are ahead of the game.”
A new innovation for 2011 was introduced by Prof Hardy and his team in hte form of the Venturefest networking website.
He said: “The whole object was to ensure Venturefest Yorkshire was not just a one day in the year event, but an ongoing process. As a result, this year business people arrived with a list of appointments in their pockets as a result of opportunities found at venturefestyorkshire.net.
We hope and expect that a lot more deals will have been done this year."
