Every month we host a separate Members’ Meeting in each County. These relaxed, positive and friendly networking events feature either an educational workshop from an expert Guest Speaker or an interactive team-building exercise.
About:
Our monthly Members’ Meetings are a place for members (and guests) to come together to receive business advice/support, increase your reach, learn from our expert Guest Speakers, expand your network and build on any existing business connections.
Included:
- Either an educational workshop hosted by an expert Guest Speaker OR an interactive and informal team-building exercise encouraging the formation of organic business and personal connections between attendees.
