The 8,000sq ft business hub opened its doors to attendees from various business sectors to showcase the new co-working space, media suite, expo room, meeting rooms and American diner. Guests were invited to tour the site, network and find out more about the services on offer.

Partners of Shout Network greeted visitors from their stands in the conference hall. To commemorate the launch, the Shout Connect flag was raised outside the premises in Navigation Way.

This followed a speech from Martin Blunt of UCLan, Shout Network’s first ever partner, and Rachel Gill of Aspect Mortgages, Shout Network’s longest serving member.
