Proud to be partners of Business Week 2011

eskimosoup have become the communications partner for the prestigious Business Week in the Hull and Humber region.

Now in its seventh year, Business Week is a celebration of star performers and inspirational speakers in the biggest event of its kind anywhere in the world. A programme of conferences and networking events will help promote the best practice of commerce and community across the Humber region, from tourism and the economy through to healthcare and education. The week’s grand finale is the Yorkshire International Business Convention (YIBC), which this year has a winning theme and is the overall theme for the week which runs from 5th to 10th June.

As communications partner eskimosoup will be designing the Hull Business Week brochure, developing a new website and managing media communications.

Yesterday, Business Week organisers where the headline story in The Business section of the Hull and East Riding Mail.

John Gilbert, Marketing Director of eskimosoup and communications lead for Business Week says: “We are very excited to be in the thick of it for this year’s Business Week. The hard work done by the organising team of the past six years means that we are off to a great start and with the ambitious and passionate team that have come together to take the reigns we are confident of building on this success.
I’m not convinced everyone realises just how significant Business Week is for the region and what it has achieved. It really is a global leader for this type of collaborate working between business with the public and third sectors. We are proud to have our role to play.”

Business Week is this year organised by Hull and East Yorkshire Community Foundation. Members of the steering group include representatives from City Council, Institute of Directors East Yorkshire branch, npower, Leonardo’s @ Quayside, Yorkshire International Business Convention and eskimosoup.

The 2011 Business Week website will go live in early April.
