Scale & Succeed: Strategies to Accelerate Your Business Growth Event

Transform Your Business with Insight, Innovation and AI Know How

At the University of Bedfordshire, we know that growing a business is about more than day-to-day operations – it’s about shaping an organisation that attracts investment, adapts with confidence, and thrives in a competitive landscape. Our upcoming free, in-person event is designed to help you do exactly that.

When: Thursday 19th March 2026

Where: Putteridge Bury Campus, University of Bedfordshire

Time: 10am-12.30pm

This event brings together business owners, directors, and senior leaders who are ready to strengthen their strategic approach and accelerate growth. The event will look at how AI can be a lever for growth together with information about the government part-funded programme Help to Grow Management.

You’ll hear from specialists on how to refine and future-proof your business model, with a focus on profitability, sustainability, and scalability.

About the AI Session:
Our expert-led session will focus on real-world experience across industry, public services, and applied research, exploring how organisations can unlock value from AI. The practical, non-technical session will examine how meaningful impact emerges when AI initiatives align with business priorities, data readiness, people capability, and decision-making processes.

The event will also introduce the Help to Grow: Management course – a UK Government-backed programme delivered by experienced educators. The course equips SME leaders with the knowledge, tools, and strategies needed to drive sustainable long-term success.
