The Somerset College Business Forum fundraiser has in previous years brought some varied and topical speakers to the campus whilst raising funds for specific projects. It has always been a well-supported event amongst both local businesses and our community. This annual event is a wonderful opportunity for networking, team building or just enjoying a relaxing social evening. Apart from an informal discussion, the programme also includes a Q&A session facilitating direct interaction with our guests.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The next Business Forum event will be hosted in 2026.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
