A major business support programme will host its final event of the year next month.

AD:VENTURE, which supports start-ups and early-stage businesses, will hold its Business Growth Gathering on Tuesday, December 2 at Bradford Live from 10am to 3pm.

The event will focus on small business success in 2026 and is being delivered in partnership with Bradford Council and the West Yorkshire Combined Authority.

Phil Cole, head of business support at Leeds City Council, said: “We can’t believe that this will be the last event of the year.

“We’ve delivered many sessions throughout 2025 and want this to be a real celebration of all that our SME community has achieved.”

Attendees will hear from the Bradford City of Culture team, gain insights from Bradford BID, and take part in interactive panel discussions.

A complimentary networking lunch will also be provided, and places are limited.

Registration is available via Eventbrite.
