Business event delegate numbers soar
More than 1600 people have signed up for this year's ISLEXPO which opens at the Villa Marina tomorrow (24 May)
The two-day event to foster business and enterprise in the Isle of Man, features expert panels, pop-up talks, a digital workshop and master-classes - as well as keynote speakers including inventor and investor Jim Mellon.
Following on from last year's inaugural event, the 2017 expo will focus on helping businesses large and small, to expand to the next stage.
Delegate numbers are well up on last year, with almost double the number of business people and would-be entrepreneurs from off Island.
With similar events hosted in other UK cities, organisers say the response to invitations is very encouraging:
