Business leaders from across the North East recently gathered to explore how regional connectivity—especially through major transport hubs like Heathrow and Newcastle airports—can drive growth and open new doors for companies in County Durham.
Hosted by the North East Chamber of Commerce, the event highlighted how improved access to global markets and supply chains could benefit the region’s SMEs, manufacturers, and exporters. With Heathrow spending £15 million annually with North East businesses, the potential for County Durham firms to tap into this network is significant.
