CROSS BORDER SPEED NETWORKING EVENT
Due to the unprecedented success of the inaugural Cross Border Speed Networking event hosted by Dundalk Chamber of Commerce and Newry Chamber of Commerce & Trade I am delighted to invite your organisation to participate in the 2008 event, taking place on Wednesday 30th January.
Over 60 businesses from Newry and Dundalk attended last year’s event; valuable contacts were made, some organisations secured significant contracts during the session, ranging in value from €2k to €20k….
Why Speed Networking Works… Business networking is essential to grow your business, gain new customers, clients and contacts. Getting face to face with a potential client or partner is the only way you really know whether you can do business with them or not. However, traditional networking events can sometimes be unproductive, as many of us tend to gravitate towards those we already know, never getting the opportunity to meet other potential lucrative business contacts. The joint Chamber Cross Border Speed Networking Event will guarantee you the opportunity to meet a large number of individuals that you would never otherwise have had the chance to network and potentially do business with!!!
How does it work??
The format for the day will involve 2 forty-minute sessions of networking. Delegates will be divided into two groups and allocated 3 minutes to network with a member of the opposite group before moving onto the next delegate.
During the event two draws will take place, with the winners given the opportunity to present their company details to all attendees.
Facilities will also be available to register your services and also register any business needs you may have. Co-hosting the event with Newry Chamber of Commerce & Trade will afford you the opportunity to network with Chamber members from both sides of the Border.
This event is sponsored by InterTradeIreland and will be held in the Carrickdale Hotel, Dundalk from 9.30am to 1.30pm. The event includes lunch.
Upon registering for the event you will receive an information pack outlining the format for the event. Places are limited - so book early to avoid disappointment!!
