This free event hosted by Constructionline, the government-owned database of contractors, is being held in Wrexham on Wednesday 16th and Thursday 17th July. Lend Lease is particularly interested in meeting representatives from SMEs based across North Wales.

These events offer valuable introductions between both parties, helping organisations source quality suppliers and enabling contractors to meet procurement directors to learn about winning work in their area.鈥�
Lend Lease procurement manager Teresa Sykes said: 鈥淭he is set to be a major development that will create long-term work opportunities for local suppliers.
