LEP Conference 2019

Save the date for the annual LEP Conference, which is taking place earlier than usual this year.

Our conference will be staged at the Lincolnshire Showground on Friday 12th July 2019 and will still feature the same essential mix of keynote speakers, expert panel discussions and networking opportunities. 

As the LEP continues to shape Greater Lincolnshire’s Local Industrial Strategy, the theme of this year’s conference is Lincolnshire's Evolving Opportunities. Stand by for some fantastic panels, speakers and discussions, as well as an exhibition showcasing innovative and digital technology for future-proofing your business.
