KCOM means business with exciting week of events
This year, Humber Business Week, which runs from Monday, 3 June, to Friday, 7 June, boasts an impressive array of high-profile keynote speakers, expos, conferences, workshops, tours, celebration receptions and, of course, the odd networking lunch to provide local companies of all sizes the chance to inspire and learn from one another.
And with speakers including billionaire Lord Alan Sugar, England footballing great Kevin Keegan and Siemens chief executive Juergen Maier to look forward to during the week, there should be something for everyone to enjoy.
Other highlights on the calendar include a boot room team talk on leadership in the KCOM Stadium’s dressing room, a guided tour of Hull’s new Priory Park film studios and a pop up restaurant led by the Michelin star restaurant Winteringham Fields.
KCOM recently completed its £85m rollout of full fibre Lightstream across Hull and East Yorkshire, bringing ultrafast broadband to more than 200,000 properties. A recent independent report revealed that Lightstream directly adds £125m to the local economy every year, boosting local businesses and allowing them to compete on a truly global scale.
Research also showed that 65 per cent of businesses in the area say Lightstream has made them more efficient while 40 per cent of customers surveyed said they felt their future growth would be hampered if they didn’t have Lightstream.
