The total number of students attending the annual event at Scarborough Spa has now exceeded 43,000.
Simon Bull, chairman of organisers the Scarborough Business Ambassadors, said: "Our 15th showcase has been a tremendous success. The event has consolidated itself as one of the most significant regional gatherings of the year in creating life-changing opportunities.
"There are more and more young people who attended as schoolchildren who are now in skill-based careers.
"It's fantastic to see the youngsters engaged with all the exhibitions and being inspired by the range of displays, technology and design.
"Our sponsors and supporters have helped us to create a unique and valuable platform that embraces the business community and education providers."
He said the extra addition this year of a well-attended business breakfast on the maritime and renewables sector, sponsored by Dale Power Solutions and North Yorkshire Council, highlighted vast opportunities and careers.
The event is run in conjunction with education and business partnership NYBEP.
