Our event is a celebration of business, innovation and creativity.

Sunderland Business Week showcases our brilliant city as a dynamic place to do business. The event is returning for a 5th time from 13-17 October 2025, featuring expert presentations, panel discussions, fireside chats, networking, workshops and more. It’s for businesses from the city, but also those further afield, held in venues across the heart of this transforming location – an inspiring week for people in business, or thinking of taking an entrepreneurial leap!
