Imagine what would happen if the business leaders running Europe’s most successful and innovative businesses got together to debate and identify the ways they could all double the size of their businesses in the next couple of years…

The European Business Awards has engaged with over 32,000 businesses in the 2015/16 competition.

At the Awards Ceremony 11 Overall Category Winners and one European Public Champion will be announced, witnessed by an audience of 500+ including Europe’s most successful businesses, leading business academics, government officials, business press and VIPs.

• Think of the ideas that would be generated • The relationships that would be built • The deals that could be struck Well that is exactly what will be happening during the conference on 17th June, and we would like to invite you to promote your business and play an integral part in the event.

Each of the sessions will tackle a different challenge.

Groups of business leaders will discuss and debate the findings in the survey, develop ideas and identify solutions. *Detailed conference programme to follow

The conference will be based on a major piece of research undertaken by The European Business Awards looking at the hurdles and challenges to growth. The detailed research explores topics such as HR issues, the rapid advance of disruptive technology, finance raising, and sales and marketing challenges, some of the core components that hold back our most successful businesses.
