Putting Sussex at the heart of Business
9th September 2025Eastbourne Business Show launch – and Gatwick Returns
Following the success of the Brighton & Hove Business Show, Sussex business leaders can now look forward to two further flagship events this autumn: the inaugural Eastbourne Business Show (Wednesday 10th September 2025, The Kings Centre) and the return of the Gatwick Business Show for its second year (Thursday 16th October 2025, The Elite Venue Selection Felbridge Gatwick).
The shows offer excellent networking opportunities, but they are far more effective than other events. Business shows are where entrepreneurs, SMEs and industry experts come together to build relationships, share knowledge, and uncover new opportunities. Exhibitors span a wide range of sectors from finance, marketing, and HR to technology, wellbeing, and professional services. The diverse mix reflects the vibrancy and diversity of the Sussex economy.
