Cumbria businesses are invited to accelerate growth with the 'Cumbria Accelerator: Accelerate Your Business' event hosted by McMenon.

Set for September 26 between 10am and 1pm, the event promises valuable expert advice.

Attendees will have the chance to hear from Cumbria LEP, The Department for Business and Trade, Made Smarter Programme, and Innovate UK EDGE, about current support offerings, including advice on innovation, international growth, funding and more.

People will also receive a tour of the McMenon Engineering Services' facility, to understand how it has become a global supplier of flow and temperature measurement instrumentation across various industries including renewables, nuclear, energy, and food/beverages.

The event will provide ample networking opportunities over a buffet lunch.

One place is available per business.

A spokesman said: "Join us to find out about the latest support available for Cumbrian businesses, hear about the achievements of pioneering local firm McMenon Engineering Services and take a tour of their facilities and network over lunch with other local business leaders.
