Major conference this week
The numbers are looking good for a major business conference later this week.
An inaugural one-day event last year, ISLEXPO has been expanded to two days this time around, taking place on Wednesday and Thursday.
This time it aims to look at growth and acceleration, as well as start-up businesses.
Around 1,400 people have registered, up from 1,000 or so last time, including 180 from off-Island.
Economic Development Minister Laurence Skelly says there's also been plenty of media interest from elsewhere:
