THE future direction and success of the North West economy will be discussed at a high profile event next week.

Hosted by accountants and business advisers BDO Stoy Hayward, “2012 – A view into the future” will feature a speech and question and answer session with Dr James Bellini, a respected business guru and authority on forward strategy.

The event, taking place at Stock Restaurant in Manchester next Wednesday, will look forward to 2012 and will highlight what’s in store for businesses in the North West, and what effect the recession will have on the future prospects of businesses in the region.
