WARWICKSHIRE MEANS BUSINESS

Free webinars will explain HS2 supply chain opportunities for SMEs

Business looking to become involved in the HS2 supply chain can get all the information they need from a series of webinars through to mid-August.

The webinars, delivered by HS2's Business Engagement team, are designed to help local businesses navigate the HS2 supply chain and fully understand what HS2 is looking for from suppliers. 

Phase One of High Speed Two has been given Notice to Proceed by the Government, a major step forward for the project that will bring an estimated 400,000 supply chain contract opportunities for UK businesses for this phase alone. Around two thirds of these businesses are expected to be small and medium sized.

 In the weekly webinars, at 11-11.45am every Wednesday until August 12, a range of subjects will he explored, including bidding and competing for work on HS2 and skills and environmental issues.

At each event, attendees will hear from a different expert speaker, and be able to take part in a Q&A session. These webinar sessions - ‘Work With Us Wednesday’ - are free of charge and available to anyone who wishes to learn more about these opportunities.
