Exhibitions aim to boost small business

Two events next week will offer entrepreneurs the chance to exhibit and network with like-minded business-people.

The Ideal Business Show, to be held at Newbury Racecourse over the 29 and 30 April, aims to give small businesses access to the latest products, advice and services.

Commenting on the show, Tory leader David Cameron said: "SMEs are the engine of growth and employment in our country, so when they prosper, the whole country benefits.

"I am sure that the advice and support these events provide will help more businesses do just that."

The Ideal Business Show will be held again at Mill Station, Wales on the 16 and 17 July.

Meanwhile, small businesses are also being offered the chance to exhibit at IFEX, Northern Ireland's food, drink, hospitality and retail exhibition.

Celebrating its 22nd anniversary, the event will be held in The King's Hall, Belfast from 19 April to 1 May.
