The first event was Let's Talk Place, which was held at the MKM Stadium, and launched Humber Business Week with a bang. John Till of thinkingplace led a panel of experts from the region to discuss place and what it meant to them and the opportunities it presents for businesses in the Humber. Attending were artist Calvin Innes and poet Vicky Foster, who both captured the conversation and vibe in the room to produce a wonderful artwork and a poem. You can hear the poem on this episode.

A huge thank you to HEY Mind for providing the training, and to Hull College for hosting.
