The Devon Business Show returned with a bang as hundreds of the region’s businesses and entrepreneurs descended on Plymouth Pavilions to connect with more than 90 exhibitors.

Our theme for 2022 reflected Devon & Plymouth Chamber’s three strategic priorities – People, Planet, Purpose – with a contemporary layout for a new era featuring seven sector zones, together with innovative and interactive exhibition opportunities.
Stands sold out in record time, and exhibitors worked hard on designing displays to bring you a fully engaging and interactive show, with evidence of their own green sustainability credentials.
Our Planet Partner, YGS Landscapes, created a Micro Forest outside the entrance, and the first 300 visitors on the day received a voucher to exchange for a free tree of their choice – equivalent to another Micro Forest!
People Partner, City College Plymouth, provided hot meals and snacks throughout the day courtesy of their talented students and staff.
And Real Ideas, our Purpose Partner, was on hand to advise how your business could be more purpose driven while still making a good profit.
On arrival guests were handed a beautifully designed Goodie Bag packed full of useful, informative and innovative items donated by The Plymouth Charter, University of Plymouth, Airband, Waterways Drainage Specialists, City College Plymouth, Brain Tumour Research and, of course, our Goodie Bag Partner Acronyms.
The biodegradable bags themselves were printed by Imattination and are compostable and reusable. They also included a free hot drinks voucher from Devon Coffee Company for every attendee.
Networking was made fun and easy with BCR Associates hosting the Networking Hub right at the heart of the show. And all day long we recorded live podcasts presented by Westcotts in partnership with Fresh Air Studios.
A huge thank you to our partners, exhibitors and attendees. And to our dedicated Chamber team who made sure everything on the day ran smoothly and like clockwork.
