Event aimed at helping both start-ups and larger organisations
Organisers of last week's ISLEXPO say the event was well attended by off-Island delegates - including a number from the UK media.
The event was designed to showcase the assistance on offer for start-ups and larger organisations, seeking to relocate on the island and grow.
Over two days at the Villa Marina, a range of talks, panels, keynote speakers and workshops targeted enterprises at all stages of business growth.
Entrepreneurs were shown how to access to funding, loans and mentoring - and the Department of Economic Development says it will be following up a number of new leads.
It's too early to measure results, but James Sore from Angel investment firm Syndicate Room says the expo, still in its infancy, is hitting the spot:
