Welcome to this quarter’s Brent Business News, produced by Brent Council’s Employer Partnership to provide businesses with information to help support business growth and continuity. This edition explores how the current economic downturn is likely to impact business activity in the borough and which industries are likely to be hit hardest by the recession. Market intelligence from economic consultants Gavurin explain what this could mean for businesses but also business related activity in the borough. There’s also lots of useful information about how you can protect your business from the worst effects of the recession and other risks that may jeopardise your businesses productivity.
