"We want to help the county's businesses to unlock their full potential as part of our plans to create a stronger, fairer and greener Powys," said Cllr David Selby, Powys County Council's Cabinet Member for a More Prosperous Powys. "So, I would appeal to anyone running a business of any size in Powys, or who is thinking about relocating to the area, to drop in and speak to us at one of these six events.
