On Thursday 8 October 2015 Think Sandwell is giving you the chance to meet Carillion, the preferred bidder on the £430m Midland Metropolitan Hospital (MMH).

Our free networking event is being held from 8am to 1pm at the CAP Centre in Smethwick, which is adjacent to the MMH site.

The morning session is expected to attract dozens of the region's top suppliers keen to meet representatives from major contractor Carillion.

Carillion recently led the development of the new Library of Birmingham.

Some of the region’s biggest firms are signed up to exhibit at our event, including Metsec, Ash & Lacy, Briggs Amasco, Unistrut, Thomas Dudley Group, Caparo and Hadley Group.

During the morning we will unveil our state-of-the-art BIM Technology & Skills Development Suite, designed to help local businesses get to grips with building information technology (BIM). You will also see the latest developments to the West Midlands Virtual Hospital.
