Local events

Sandwell Council is working with Constructing West Midlands and other Black Country Local Authorities to bring you the opportunity to meet their contractors and buyers.

It is an opportunity to get face to face with some of the Midlands’ largest construction contractors and public-sector buyers.

Speed-dating style meetings will give you ten minutes with powerful buyers – such as officers from the Black Country’s four local councils and buyers from the NHS, HS2, Wates, Equans, BHCG, BAM and Lovell. You can also take part in small group discussions with decision-makers from major contractors such as Speller Metcalfe, Seddon, GF Tomlinson, Interclass, Morgan Sindall, Wilmott Dixon, ISG Ltd and Galliford Try.

The day will also include presentations about major initiatives including the Towns Fund, the Regeneration Pipeline and HS2, as well as social value and where to find new business opportunities.

Meet other key organisations including FinditintheBlackCounty, Klick, PSR Group, the Care Leaver Covenant, ISO, Think Sandwell’s employment and skills team, and Sandwell Council’s procurement and climate and natural environment teams.

The event takes place from 9.30am to 3pm at the Hawthorns, home to West Bromwich Albion Football Club.

Please note that spaces are limited and priority will be given to businesses based in the Black Country.
