More than 40 businesses were taking part today in Oxfordshire's biggest and most prestigious business event.

The In Business Exhibition was being held at Blenheim Palace at Woodstock, writes David Duffy.

Following the huge success of the first event last year, this year's exhibition promises to be bigger and better with organisations taking stands in The Orangery and The Spencer Churchill Room, as well as taking part in a series of seminars.

The free 90-minute seminars will cover a wide range of commercial issues, and there will also be a question-and-answer forum. The exhibition is organised by the Oxford Mail's sister paper The Oxford Times.
