Cornwall Business Fair has announced it will be returning bigger and better than ever for 2022.

Taking place on Wednesday March 9 as the centrepiece of Cornwall’s Festival of Business, the Fair, organised by Cornwall Chamber of Commerce, provides a platform for businesses of all shapes and sizes to connect and support each other.

With a new home at Newquay Sports Centre and a new spring date, the 2022 edition of the event has been reinvigorated following a year’s hiatus and a virtual format in 2020.

Offering networking opportunities, the event brings together at least 80 standholders and attracts over 1250 people from all sectors of Cornwall’s business community.

Kim Conchie, CEO of Cornwall Chamber of Commerce, says: "The Cornwall Business Fair is a celebration of Cornwall’s pioneering industry, innovation and infrastructure.

"It has been a key event in Cornwall’s business calendar for more than a decade and after such an unsettled time, we are looking forward to the 2022 Fair more than ever.

"It is an opportunity for businesses to come back together, to support the economy of Cornwall, share and learn from industry best practice and of course, start new conversations.

"Walking around the Fair you can quite literally feel the buzz of new partnerships being formed, ideas being generated, and actions being inspired.
