Melksham is a bustling town, and you can find almost any products and services you need if only you know where to look and who to speak too. And what better than to buy local - support the local economy, and get local support from your neighbourhood business?
We're hosting a BUSINESS to BUSINESS speed networking event at Well House Manor (48 Spa Road), starting at 6:15 on Thursday, 28th June where each business gets five minutes to meet each of 19 other businesses. It's all about making contacts on the evening - a chance to establlsh a first link to those other professionals in town who you may need to reach at some stage in the future, or indeed who you might have a desparate need for next week.
The event is hosted by Well House Consultants, who have provided specialised computer programming training in the town since 2000, bringing visitors from all over the world to learn languages such as Perl, Python and PHP. We're just an example of the sort of business that you might have not known even existed ... you might need advise on online ordering or booking systems written in these languages ... and we're right here!
We're limiting attendance to the SN12 postcode area, and to one place at the table per company - there's a 15 pound charge to cover our costs including a light buffet supper. If you have two delegates who want to meet up with people as a pair, that's fine (but the limit) at 20 pounds.

| Update - 22nd June 2007 We're now fully booked for Thursday, 28th June, but will run another event in the Autumn (Tuesday 16th October 2007) for another group of up to 20 Melksham businesses. It won't be the same old faces each time either, as we'll only be taking a maximum of 5 "repeat" bookings, and (for events further in the future) no-one three times in sucession |
