Highland Spotlight exhibition took place today at the Kingsmills Hotel.

With around 300 visitors turning up to meet with over 50 organisations from across the Highlands and Islands, the day was hailed a success by the organisers.

Organised by Inverness Chamber of Commerce as part of its Highland Business Week, the day provided an opportunity for business-to-business networking to take place.

Several seminars were also held throughout the day to support businesses with a range of needs.

Paula Nicol, deputy chief executive and events coordinator for Inverness Chamber of Commerce said: "I've been really pleased with how its gone today.

"There has been a real buzz around the room.

"We've not been able to hold it in person for three years, so everyone has welcomed the opportunity to meet in person and have meaningful conversations.

"It is an event like no other in the region, and there has been a lot of business and connections for collaboration done today.

"I has felt really positive."

We were able to catch up with a few of the exhibitors who were there today, who told us why they went along to spotlight.
