Thank you to everyone who helped us finish off 2013 in style with a packed meeting last month!  We had over 100 guests join us to build new relationships and catch up with old friends over a great buffet lunch.  It was great to see so many new faces and to receive such positive feedback from the guests – thank you all for your comments.

We kick off our meetings for 2014 with a breakfast on Friday 31 January.  This will be a busy one as everyone gets back into the swing of things for the new year.  You can expect a room full of 100+ guests and top quality, free, open networking.  For booking in details, see below.

We also have a date for your February diaries, as we have theBusiness Expo on Thursday 20 February.  We will have 300 guests and over 40 stands present on the day, so if you are a member make sure you book your stand space soon!

What do you need to know?

We get together once a month at Chelmsford City FC (Melbourne Park, Salerno Way, Chelmsford, Essex, CM1 2EH), alternating between breakfast and lunchtime meetings.  The next event is a breakfast on Friday 31 January from 7:00am – 9:00am.  The meetings are free to attend – if you like us and you’d like to join up and support the club there is a great membership package which includes advertising space and a copy of the attendance list, but that’s up to you.  There’s plenty of free parking and food, tea and coffee is provided free of charge.  How’s that for great value?

The meetings are very informal – there are no bells or whistles and you don’t need to give a 60 second speech.  The meetings are very popular, so we can guarantee you will meet a real mix of businesses – large and small.  This is a great opportunity to make new contacts and catch up with old friends in a relaxed environment.
