The official podcast of East Midlands Chamber – The One for Business – has landed and is available to listen now, wherever you get your podcasts.
The One for Business is the place to hear shared insight from the region’s business community and meet the people behind the organisations – whether a microbusiness, SME or large brand.
You will hear stories first-hand from the voices that made those businesses – getting to know them and their journey.
You will hear of obstacles and how they were overcome, through to shared challenges and opportunities the East Midlands business community faces.
Whether AI and digitisation; approaches to sustainability and net zero; demystifying devolution; addressing the skills gap and boosting employment; innovation in manufacturing or overcoming barriers that block growth, there will be an episode for you.
