Why Join?
Hull is changing and has a wide ranging regeneration programme to…
- Grow the city’s economy
- Enhance its image
- Transform its schools
- Reduce crime
- Improve health
Regeneration can only be successful if local businesses are playing a full and active role – that is what we are here to achieve. Hull Business Forum was set up in 2003 to work with key local organisations and partnerships, particularly the Cityvision Local Strategic Partnership, to help regenerate Hull.
Any local business, large or small, can play an active role in the Forum and we work closely with organisations such as Hull & Humber Chamber of Commerce and the Federation of Small Businesses to get as many local businesses as possible involved. Forum members elect local business people to key city partnerships to make sure the business voice is heard loud and clear. The Forum is led by a fifteen strong business steering group elected by the members.
We believe Hull can do more to help local companies grow, encourage more business start-ups, improve the city’s transport system, transform performance in schools, raise skills levels and promote a ‘buy local’ approach to procurement.
If you believe in these things too, we need your support, your ideas and commitment by registering for free to be a member of Hull Business Forum.
