The last chance to talk business with Irvine Bay in 2011!

The final one of three Irvine Bay talks business events takes place in Irvine on Tuesday 6 December, the Harbour Arts Centre, at 12.30pm (doors open from 12 noon).

The focus for this final event in the series for local businesses is the regeneration of Irvine, where a number of major projects are under way.

Working with North Ayrshire Council, get the latest on plans to transform Irvine town centre – the Bridgegate area and Trinity Church, as well as Bridgegate House and the new sports centre. Hear about other local flagship projects such as The Ayrshire – which will shortly have plans available for public consultation – and Irvine Harbour are progressing.

Talks business events in Kilwinning and Ardrossan were both well attended, with the focus on what is happening locally.

Chief Executive Patrick Wiggins said: “Building on the terrific success of the past two years, this is the third year we have run our talks business series of events.

“These meetings allow us to keep local businesses up to date with our activity and progress, and with the opportunities that work can present for them.”

The event is expected to last around 1 hour and will include a question and answer session. Teas, coffees and refreshments will be served afterwards allowing time for networking and one-to-one discussions with Irvine Bay staff.

Designed especially for business people in the Irvine Bay area, this is the ideal opportunity to meet other local businesses and hear what Irvine Bay is doing in the area.
