The International Festival for Business (IFB) will be the UK’s most significant international trade and commerce showcase since 1951.
It will be the biggest concentration of business events globally in 2014, attracting more than 250,000 visitors from more than 100 countries across 50 days during June and July 2014. Hosted in the Liverpool City Region, the IFB will comprise well over 100 business focused events, underpinned by a major cultural programme.
It will run from 9 June to 22 July 2014.

- promote economic growth
- rebalance the economy
- double UK exports by 2020
