About this event

Join us for our Data Reveal event on Thursday 9th October, where we’ll be unveiling the latest insights from our Q3 Quarterly Economic Survey. This time, our focus is on the Autumn Budget - giving you an exclusive first look at what the numbers mean for the Black Country business community.

The event will feature a thought-provoking lecture from Dr Ian Jackson, Senior Lecturer in Economics at the University of Wolverhampton, who will break down the current economic landscape and what it could mean for your business. You’ll also hear from a panel of local business leaders as they discuss how they’re navigating today’s challenges, adapting to change, and sharing their hopes and predictions for the upcoming Budget in November.

The panel members for this quarter are:

Carolyn Smith, Managing Director of TPSquared
Stephen Deakin, CE of BCRS Business Loans
Jeanette McFarland, CEO of Assa Abloy

Whether you want to stay ahead of the curve, connect with peers, or simply get the facts you need to plan ahead, this is an event you won’t want to miss. Come along to stay informed, inspired, and ready for what’s next!
