Alongside Albert Goodman and the UCS College Group, Stephens Scown is proud to sponsor this exciting event hosted by South West Business Insider.

There is huge opportunity in the region, from the £4bn Agratas gigafactory firmly under construction and news that there will be a new M5 junction to serve it, to the £23.2million of funding confirmed for Bridgwater earlier this year.

Huge progress has also been made in developing Somerset’s skills offering, with the news that Bridgwater & Taunton College and Strode College are set to merge and form a new College Group consisting of four colleges, called the University Centre Somerset College Group (UCS College Group), allowing it to more effectively contribute to the regional and national economy.

However, as certain sectors within Somerset navigate a period of rapid change and opportunity, there are significant rural and agricultural parts of the region that must be catered to and nurtured. In this breakfast, we will explore:

• Shaping a cohesive growth agenda for Somerset
• What’s happening and where?
• Opportunities that go beyond the region’s major projects
