“The seminars will also for the first time run sequentially allowing individuals to see them all if they wish. All seminars will also be in the main hall to encourage more exhibitor traffic and create more of a buzz at the event.
“We purposefully choose Paisley Town Hall, to support Paisley, Scotland’s largest town and encourage business people to get back into it.”
The entire event is free to attend and open to all Renfrewshire businesses, organisations, students and schools.
The twitter hashtag for all communications relating to the event is #b2bpaisley
