LOCAL business leaders are being asked to give their verdict on the region’s identity.
Almost 2,000 readers recently completed the Evening Gazette’s identity survey – with just over half opting for the name Teesside as the one to describe the place where they live.
Those responding to the survey also gave the name Tees Valley a resounding thumbs down.
There was also an overwhelming support for the area’s airport to revert to using the Teesside name again.
Gazette Media Company and the Institute of Directors are now holding a special event on Monday, July 26, and are inviting members of the local businesscommunity to come along and share their thoughts on the identity issue.
