Leading Oxfordshire Business Network Hosts Event at Blenheim Palace
B4 – the Oxford Business Network – recently hosted an innovative forum at Blenheim Palace in the Marlborough Room.
The event, which examined how to house Oxfordshire’s growing workforce, was attended by nearly 50 delegates from across the Oxfordshire District including the county’s planning and business community.
Town planners, elected officials and the business community came together on a mission to explain the urgent issues facing the county and its lack of affordable housing and what can be done to address them.
Richard Rosser, CEO of B4 said: “We chose to host this event at Blenheim Palace as the focus was on housing in Oxfordshire, an issue which valued Oxfordshire Voice Partner Blenheim is passionate about as illustrated by its commitment to affordable housing.”
The event was catered by Searcy’s.
Blenheim Palace has been playing host to monarchs, the aristocracy and heads of state for more than three centuries. Today the 2,000 acre UNESCO World Heritage Site offers the ultimate bespoke corporate facilities in an inspiring location.
