Huddersfield: The next chapter...

It’s no secret that Huddersfield is going places. The £1billion of public investment injected into our town is now beginning to show. Cranes on the horizon, new civic, retail and entertainment offers to bring people back to the town centre, Investment Zone opportunities to deliver high-quality jobs, a state-of the-art health & wellbeing campus with global reach, a railway that will provide better connectivity, our local businesses thriving and growing, to name but a few of the signs that Huddersfield is rapidly becoming a hot-spot for investors with an eye for opportunity.

Our town’s local business community is buzzing with new optimism, and we are seeing a renewed sense of pride in what we can achieve when we work together. Our annual conference returns on October 24th, and this year, we are celebrating not just all the positive things that are happening, but the equally important new narrative that Huddersfield is forging for itself. The next chapter…

We have much to celebrate and much work to do. This year’s event is kindly sponsored by Huddersfield Town AFC, and will bring together all the key stakeholders who are steering this town to success. We will be joined by:

• Kevin Nagle (Chairman of HTAFC)

• Carole Pattison (Leader of Kirklees Council)

• Sarah Bowes (Head of Business, Innovation and Inclusive Economy at WYCA)

• David Shepherd (Executive Director for Place at Kirklees Council)

• Harpreet Uppal MP (Huddersfield)

• Paul Davies MP (Colne Valley)

• Aaron Holt (CEO Holdson Ltd)

• Senior leaders from local businesses who have invested in Huddersfield with great success.

You will have the opportunity to hear our keynote speakers’ thoughts on Huddersfield’s next chapter, as well as have your questions answered by our panellists.
