Introducing the Mayoral Business Guild

The Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire, Dame Andrea Jenkyns, is launching the Mayoral Business Guild – a new series of business focused events designed to bring local employers, innovators, and entrepreneurs together. 

Whether you’re a small business owner, a family run firm, a manufacturer, a farmer, or a fast-growing startup, the Business Guild gives you the chance to share your experience directly with the Mayor and help shape the future of Greater Lincolnshire’s economy. 

 What the Business Guild is about:

The Guild will travel across towns and rural communities throughout Greater Lincolnshire, creating space for: 

• Honest conversations about the opportunities and challenges local businesses face 

• Practical ideas to support growth, investment, and job creation 

• Networking with other businesses in the area 

• Hearing directly from expert speakers and local business leaders 

Each event includes a keynote from Dame Andrea Jenkyns, a panel discussion, an open Q&A, and time to meet and connect with others.
