Bradford Place Prospectus Launch

This is an in person event.

Audience

This event is open to both members and non-members of Business in the Community (BITC). It is designed for business and community leaders based in and around Bradford.

Background

Having won the bid for the UK City of Culture 2025, the scene is set for Bradford to capitalise on its cultural collateral. This unique opportunity will drive greater participation across the district and put arts, entertainment and musical expression at the heart of all communities. This is the chance for more people and communities in Bradford to tell their story.

BITC will be launching the Bradford Prospectus, where a vison for Bradford’s future is set out, with key asks from government and businesses to help create a district everyone can be part of, and to give our young people the best start.
