    Hosted by broadcaster Jim Fitzpatrick, the Economic Forum will also be supported by the British Business Bank and The Progressive Building Society, who will take part in an engaging panel discussion focused on the funding spectrum available to businesses.

    The British Business Bank will be joined on the panel by representatives from Whiterock Finance and Clarendon Fund Managers, all of whom will offer leading financial expert perspectives.
