North Yorkshire was represented by David Kerfoot MBE, our LEP Chair, Tom McKenzie of Spark:York, Graham Jeal of Cast Iron Radiators and Andrew Whitwell of Labman. Amongst talk of employment skills, energy security and who can read all your company communications there were some good presentations and plenty of networking.
