Connect

Our mission is to create a thriving business community by forging valuable connections and facilitating vital collaboration. We nurture personal, trusted, and long-standing relationships with our members and seek to understand their priorities to help them achieve their goals.

By mobilising our networks and sharing intelligence, we spot opportunities and connect people where there is mutual interest and benefit. We represent the business interests of the South West by providing a well-informed, authoritative voice and working across local, regional, and national government.

Additionally, we work in support of member and partner priorities to help achieve collective goals and aspirations, focusing on several key areas, including infrastructure, skills and education, innovation, and sustainability. We connect the South West with other regions and cities across the UK and internationally, opening up new opportunities and elevating the region on the global stage.
