Ealing business festival returns to University of West London

The Deputy Mayor of London for Business and Growth, Howard Dawber, will be the keynote speaker at the Ealing Festival of Business when it returns next month.

This year’s festival will bring together businesses, entrepreneurs, investors, educators and public sector organisations from Ealing and across West London.

The event, organised by West London Chambers of Commerce, will take place at the University of West London on 15 October 2026 and is sponsored by iFAST Global Bank, Barratt West London and the University of West London.

Last year, West London Chambers of Commerce said around 450 people attended the festival.

The programme will include opportunities for businesses to meet potential customers and suppliers, develop partnerships and hear from industry speakers. The festival will also promote youth employment and apprenticeships and encourage businesses to provide opportunities for young people.

Alan Rides, chief executive officer of West London Chambers of Commerce: “The response to last year’s festival was fantastic. We are determined to build on that momentum in 2026 and make this year’s event even bigger and more valuable for local businesses.”
