KLCBT to host the first ever Lowveld Business Conference

The year 2025 has kicked off with a real bang!  We can see everybody and business is waking up from a post-Covid slumber.  A lot has changed and is changing in our world.  We need to fit into the global space from a Lowveld perspective and with our own unique Lowveld spin.  What are our unique selling points, how do we communicate in the new world, how will global politics and AI influence my business, how to manage risks better, etc. etc.

Lowveld Business Conference 21—22 May 2025

The conference will start at 10h00 on the 21st of May on the first day, followed by a gala dinner which will also be the inauguration ceremony of our newly elected KLCBT president.  The second day will start at 08h30 and carry on until lunch time.  This format will allow people from out of town to drive in on the first morning, stay over one night and drive back after the conference the second day.  It will also allow businesses to have some office time at their businesses for a couple of hours on each day.  This will allow small business owners to set the time aside to attend.
