TOP business people from around the county are due to meet to talk about the future of Kent.

The Institute of Directors is hosting the free business breakfast at the Kent Partnership Annual Stakeholders Conference on Friday, November 18. The aim of the conference is to bring together a range of business voices to discuss the Vision for Kent.

The Vision is the 20-year community strategy which underpins the work of the various sectors across the county. The idea of the breakfast is to hear the views of the business community.

And the event is also an opportunity to introduce the new leader of Kent County Council, Paul Carter, to the delegates.

The breakfast will take place between 8am and 9am, with the main conference starting at 9.30am, at The River Centre, Tonbridge.
