As an integral part of the Manchester business community, Manchester Central was the obvious choice to host the launch of Business Manchester on 27 September 2018.
Hosted in the venue's Cobden Rooms, which look out onto the city, 175 business leaders enjoyed an evening of networking, a key note speech from the Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, whilst also sampling some of the venues refreshed hospitality offering.
Now a sponsor of the publication, Manchester Central has long invested in building up relationships with businesses in the local vicinity. Each year it welcomes over 500,000 delegates to the venue, generating £80m in economic value for the city.
Andy Mann, Co-owner and Group Editor of Business Manchester, explained: “Manchester Central was perfect for our event and the venue team's flawless attention to detail ensured that the event ran even better than we possibly could have envisaged.
What we didn’t realise, was how many different spaces the venue has - it really is much more than their Central Hall! The Cobden Rooms were the perfect setting for our event. Set in the heart of Manchester, the feedback we’ve received from our guests has been incredibly positive. We’re looking forward to using the venue’s superb facilities in the future!”
