Government ministers, opposition MPs and a host of famous names in business will attend the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) annual conference on 10 February.

The conference will take place three months before the UK’s general election and is poised to present business pledges from both sides of the House of Commons.

Giving their view will be a host of entrepreneurial talent, including Angus Thirwell of Hotel Choclate and Fraser Doherty, founder of SuperJam.

Shadow chancellor Ed Balls, leader of the House William Hague and deputy first minister of Scotland John Swinney will be present, according to today’s announcement.

There will also be presentations from former England rugby coach Sir Clive Woodward, BBC chief business correspondent Linda Yueh and Martin Wolf from the Financial Times.

John Longworth, BCC director general, said: “This years’ general election is set to be the most unpredictable vote in decades.

“Our annual conference – set in the crucial run up to the polls - offers senior politicians the opportunity to clearly set out how they will deliver a more confident and more enterprising Britain.

“By setting out a true ‘Business Plan for Britain’, the political parties can instil confidence among British businesses across the country, so they can focus on delivering long –term growth and prosperity for the UK.”
