The UK Investor Show, which is expected to be the top one day investor conference of 2015, is delighted to announce that the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport and Minister for Equalities, Sajid Javid will be opening the show as a keynote speaker.

A former investment banker, Mr. Javid previously served as Economic Secretary from 2012 to 2013 and as the Financial Secretary to the Treasury from 2013 to 2014 and, according to commentator Iain Dale, is a potential future leader of the Conservative party.

Mr. Javid will share his views on the future of the City and UK Business as part of a pre-election briefing and what it means for AIM and small cap business.

At the ADVFN organised show, Mr. Javid joins a star studded line up of 40 top speakers including Britain's Buffett Nigel Wray, former C4 boss and food retailing entrepreneur Luke Johnson, The Web Sheriff Ben Edelman of Harvard, Quindell busting Tom Winnifrith, top fund manager Paul Jourdan of Amati, the Queen of Tech Vin Murria, mining gurus Dominic Frisbey and Amanda van Dyke, Ed Croft, Paul Scott and the UK's leading short sellers Evil Knievil, Matt Earl and Lucian Miers.

The show, sponsored by SwissQuote, also features 110 PLC stands, the CEOs of 75 of which will be doing investor presentations throughout the day. As of today more than 90 of these stands have been booked and details can be found at www.UKInvestorShow.com

Over 2,000 serious investors are expected to be attending the conference on 18(th) April at the QE2 Centre in Westminster, London, to hear Sajid and the other speakers and to meet the companies.
