UK businesses and autumn budget 2025

Senior business leaders from some of Yorkshire and the Humber’s fastest-growing scaleups will meet on Wednesday, 4 February 2026, for a Growth Strategies Roundtable event at the Saffery office in Leeds.

The event accompanies Yorkshire Business Insider’s new “Scaleup 75”, a feature spotlighting the region’s most dynamic growth companies founded within the past 15 years. The roundtable will explore the core strategies powering scaleup success and the entrepreneurial ecosystem required to accelerate and sustain growth, attract capital and talent, and remain rooted locally.

Discussion themes will include:

  • The journey from startup to scaleup: building teams and organisational structures, managing growth, and developing culture and brand credibility.
  • Access to funding, advisory support, and skills.
  • Availability of scalable office or manufacturing space.
  • Entering new markets and expanding geographically.
  • Plugging into regional networks and corporate partnerships to scale faster.
  • Managing risk and building resilience through operational efficiency.
  • The impact of government policy—including tax rises—on investment and hiring decisions.

Designed to foster open, practical discussion, the roundtable will provide opportunities to build valuable industry connections and gain insights from regional thought leaders.

The event is organised by Insider Media and is hosted and sponsored by Saffery.
