Sussex Business Show: geared up for tech-fuelled extravaganza

The Sussex Business Show arrived with a bang on September 26th in the Corn Exchange at Brighton Dome. Event organiser Sonny Cutting explains how the day went.

This year, we expanded our event offering by taking over the studio theatre for the keynote talks and masterclasses, the Foyer Bar and the Founders Room for the new speed networking with musical chairs, and the casino was given its own dedicated space with entry only by golden ticket for prizes and gifts in the grand draw, which was ace.

They say a picture paints a thousand words, so here’s 9 from our event  – all wrapped up in a bundle for you. Pre-event success at the Royal Pavilion, The Tiger’s Pen was a roaring success.

Well done to Clearline Recruitment, which won the ‘Best Stand Award’ for Innovation with the Human Fruit Machine, and a very well done to Vicki Nicol and her team, of Victoria Health Management, who won the ‘Best in Customer Service’ Award with the mystery shopping.

Cake maker, Fay Millar, of Gingerbread World, created the Palace Pier and it was live auctioned on the day with Matt Turner, of Creative Hub, winning it, and he also won the special heart sculpture, designed by Simon Shepherd, with all proceeds going to Rockinghorse Children’s Charity – £600 being raised to support this amazing Children’s charity.

A spectacular day of business had by all, and a huge thanks to our team of students and volunteers and to Martin Leppard, of H2 Productions, and Bethany Oates for event support.

Sussex Business Show will be back on September 25th, 2025, at Brighton Dome.
