Flintshire Business Week 2010 – which is run by Flintshire County Council – takes place this October. FBW has been an annual event since 2007 and its aims are to share knowledge and best practice, develop and improve business relationships, and platform and promote Flintshire business success.

Five days of seminars, workshops and exhibitions from 13 - 19 October

Each day will have a different theme and will be held at a different venue in the county:

Highlights will include:

• Keynote speeches from Neil Ashbridge, the Bank of England's Agent for Wales and Graeme Leach, Chief Economist, Institute of Directors.
• MP Question Time Breakfast sponsored by the Confederation of British Industries - an opportunity to address key issues with local MPs
• A networking evening sponsored by Leadership & Management Wales and Federation of Small Businesses
• A presentation at Airbus on the A350 and an Innovative and Technology exhibition

In addition to the seminars and workshops, there will be all day exhibitions by organisations and businesses connected with each theme.

On top of the core five day event, there will also be factory tours on Tuesday 12 October and the now traditional Flintshire Business Week Breakfast Launch hosted by Deeside College.

On Wednesday 20 October, the Business Week team has arranged for Flintshire businesses to have a tour of the Olympic site in London followed by a reception at the House of Commons, where it is hoped the newly appointed Secretary of State for Wales, The Right Honourable Cheryl Gillan MP will give the welcoming speech.
