The event at Westpoint Arena on 2 April is expected to reach up to 5,000 visitors.
Major marketing push continues across social media, paid ads, and live roadshow displays.
The 2026 BizFestSW floor plan has already been released to current exhibitors.
Exhibitors are already rebooking for next year due to successful lead generation and buzz.
Ashley is officially invited back for next year’s BizFestSW (confirmed live on air!).
And here is what we discussed!

Why mobile-first websites are no longer optional.
Common digital mistakes: bloated image sizes, poor structure, unclear messaging.
The role of custom-built back office systems in reducing error and increasing efficiency.
How video creates emotional connection—and why it beats static content every time.
Tips for getting comfortable on camera, including preparation, bullet points, and editing tricks.
Preparation beats perfection—especially in video content.
If your website isn’t fast and mobile-friendly, you’re losing business.
Back-office systems can dramatically reduce errors and give you time back.
Video helps people connect with your brand more deeply than text or images alone.
You don’t need to get it right in one take—editing is your friend.
Events like BizFestSW show just how much innovation is happening in the South West.
