Pride in Place Event Shines a Spotlight on Huntingdonshire's Potential

Invest in Huntingdonshire joined an inspiring day of collaboration and celebration at the inaugural Pride in Place event hosted by Huntingdonshire District Council at Burgess Hall, St Ives on Thursday 14th November.

The event brought together local businesses, community groups, and stakeholders to celebrate what makes Huntingdonshire a unique and thriving place to live, work, visit, and invest.

The vibrant atmosphere was fueled by engaging discussions, inspiring speakers, and an impressive showcase of local talent and innovation. Attendees explored opportunities to strengthen connectivity, build a resilient local economy, and enhance the district’s visitor economy.

A Day of Connections and Opportunities for Invest in Huntingdonshire, the event was an excellent opportunity to connect with individuals and organisations the team has supported and to spark new conversations. These exchanges align with the team’s mission of unlocking potential and fostering opportunities to help businesses grow, connect, and flourish across the district.

"We were thrilled to see the incredible energy and passion in the room,” said David from Invest in Huntingdonshire. “It’s events like these that lay the groundwork for a brighter, more connected future for our community."
