It is often said there is a power in a union - and that's
been taken to heart by many of the county's key inward investment agencies, who
have created an informal partnership to help promote the county.

The groups, all of which are facing cuts in funding, hope
that by ensuring no duplication in their efforts, the county will ultimately
cash-in. We reveal the agencies involved.

In a special feature, we speak to an experienced recruitment
specialist who looks back on how the sector has evolved over the last 20 years
- and why there is still space for traditional bricks and mortar
position-fillers, despite the rise in online companies.

All that and a round-up of the latest business news in the
county.
