You can remove this one, since you have Jetpack boost:

Widget Importer & Exporter – I think this was used to upload widgets to the site. It has not been used in some time it looks like

You can remove this one, although it just adds few load on plugin page and when using it.In bold, I've mentioned what you can remove do to being unused or doing a function another plugin you have, giving preference to the one that looks better.
I've left the links to the plugins, so you can check their page if you will.
About the plugins that add widget and contact page, you can disable them and check if the features will still be there and remove them if you want, although if the features they've added are still there it means they likely are using no resource beyond that.
Check if you can improve the position of the Contact widget, likely given by Business Contact Widget, and the extra search input because for me the layout for them look broken, it is really weird for it to show up in front of you content.
Overall, about the plugins, you are good, only W3 Total Cache seems redundant.
