By Business Solutions Centres
schedule16th Apr 14

The advent of HS2 and the continuing investment in high speed rail is generating significant opportunities for businesses.

Network Rail has indicated a Capital Expenditure of £24.9Bn between 2014 – 2019. In addition to the planned HS2 high-speed rail system, the spending plans for the five years include major electrification programmes, key projects like Thameslink and the Northern Hub, plus the development of new routes.

This high profile event, held in conjunction with the Rail Alliance, will demonstrate why your company should be involved and how it can capitalise on supply chain opportunities in the rail industry.

Suppliers will be able to hear directly from leading exponents in the rail industry, as well as companies from the wider infrastructure supply market. Major players Alstom, Unipart Rail and CompeteFor have already confirmed their availability for individual ‘meet the buyer’ appointments.

Other high profile speakers and further details will be announced soon.

The event is targeted at companies already active in the rail industry as well as those from other sectors wanting to diversify.
