Excitement is building for this year’s Devon Business Show – and our exclusive launch event in July certainly ramped up the excitement even further.
Our Devon Chamber of Commerce team was joined at Plymouth’s Tinside Lido by our Show Partners and special guests to celebrate the return of Devon’s biggest business show to the Life Centre on Wednesday 15 October 2025.

As well as enjoying delicious local food and drink, we got to explore this fabulous and newly updated venue – which is undoubtedly the jewel of Plymouth’s waterfront!
There was also the opportunity to hear from our Headline Partners, Lee McQueen from City College Plymouth (People and Skills Partner), and Steve Warren-Brown from YGS Landscapes and SocieTree (Planet Partners) about some of the fantastic things to expect on the day itself.
Others in attendance included representatives from our Prime Impact Partners: Paul Montgomery from Sir Fix-a-Lock; Matt Keane from Westcotts Chartered Accountants & Business Advisers; and Ben Sharland from Azets.
We also welcomed Vicky Hanks from Boosters (Show Bag Partner) Jo Rendle and Hannah Buckingham from PL1 Events (Event Partner); Steph Lewis and Rhys Jones from Plymouth Active Leisure (Show Venue); Paul Philpott and Martin Burgess-Moon from Fresh Air Studios (Podcast Hosts).
Shout-out also to those who couldn’t make it for the launch: Plymouth Citybus and Dartline (Prime Impact Partners); Devon & Somerset LSIP (Breakfast Partners) and Kaya Gallery (Lanyard Partners).
We’re still searching for our Purpose Headline Partner for 2025. Together with a double stand right at the heart of the Life Centre on 15 October, you’ll also get a host of other brilliant benefits. Find out more about our Partner opportunities.
