A business networking event in Dundee has kicked off what is shaping up to be a record year for an Aberdeen-based PR company.
Granite PR’s Dundee & Angus Expo™ recently took place at the Invercarse Hotel, Dundee with a second, one-day event planned to take place at the same location on Wednesday, November 26th. In total four Expos will run in 2025 – the most the company has ever staged in one year.
In what promises to be a momentous year for the growth of the event series, two Granite Expo™ showcases will also take place at Ardoe Hotel & Spa near Aberdeen on June 18th and November 4th with some 100 business names likely to be represented at each, setting another event record.
Pictured, from left, are: Alan Gibbon (RE-Mind @ Muirfield), Colleen Joss (Federation of Small Businesses), Steve J Innes (compere) with Yogi who won the prize for best networker, Brett Jackson (Granite PR), Stacy Edghill (Hibiscus Media and Events), Peter Menzies (The Dundee Gin Company, winner of the best stand) and Norman McConnachie of Yogi & Cindy Bears, a team of Newfoundland therapy dogs who are also fully trained in water rescue and animal assisted activities.
The free-to-attend Expos aim to provide hubs of creativity, collaboration and entrepreneurial inspiration. They regularly attract a range of SMEs from diverse industries to highlight their products and services, as well as exploring the vast array of opportunities and forging connections.
Granite PR MD and Expo™ creator Brett Jackson said: “Feedback from delegates regularly points to the volume of business that’s done between exhibitors, as well as with the new and returning visitors who drop past on the day.
“The success of the opening Expo event of 2025 has set the tempo for what promises to be another great year celebrating businesses located in or with links to the Aberdeen and Dundee areas, and we look forward to delivering this useful platform for the benefit of as many companies and individuals as possible.”
