Property & Power: What’s in it for you?

Business are being invited to attend an event that will hear about two ongoing initiatives that will drive forward economic growth in Bradford and West Yorkshire. Bradford Property Forum will meet on Tuesday 12 March and hear from two speakers. Keyland Developments will present on their plans to create a multi-purpose commercial and residential scheme on a 30-acre site around Esholt.  Andy Davidson, currently seconded from Yorkshire Bank to the Northern Powerhouse Partnership, will talk about his role as business engagement adviser to the regional organisation and how the concept can transform our region’s economy. These two initiatives, along with several others currently underway, will provide new business opportunities for many firms in West Yorkshire.  See details below. Driving growth in the North
