“SOGROW represents a unique opportunity to bring the South’s brightest business leaders together to shape a bold, prosperous future for Southampton. We’re proud to be playing our part in making it a success.
“This is a perfect time for an event like SOGROW. Nothing like this has happened for a long time and businesses need to come together to help each other and everyone in the city to thrive.
“So if you run a business in the city, come to SOGROW and use this opportunity to talk to like-minded business leaders and learn from them and from the keynote speeches on the day. Let’s build Southampton’s future together.”
