Suzanne Hall-Gibbins joins panel for Insider debate    

There's less than a week to go until Insider’s first South West event of the year. The Gloucestershire Economic Forum takes place at Rail House in Gloucester on Tuesday morning (31 January) and promises to be a must-attend for business leaders in the county.

The final confirmed panellist is Suzanne Hall-Gibbins, director of Initiative & Chamber Gloucestershire, part of Business West.

She told Insider: "This is an important opportunity to get involved in a debate about Gloucestershire's vision for the future; what priorities businesses have and how we will continue to develop Gloucestershire as a great place to live and work.  The economy is fragile and we need to work together to ensure that businesses locally have access to the right information, support and opportunities. This is a timely debate."
