How can our high streets continue to meet the needs of the community? Join the discussion at Future High Street, an event hosted in partnership between Cambridge Business Improvement District (BID) and Cambridge Network. Taking place at The Tamburlaine Hotel on 5 June, the event will look to both the challenges facing the high street and the opportunities afforded by a new era, such as using this urban hub as a space for art and entertainment.
