The Norfolk Chambers of Commerce are very pleased to announce the launch of Coastal Co.nnect, a dedicated monthly Chamber space in the heart of Great Yarmouth.
What is Coastal Con.nnect? Coastal Co.nnect is the name of the monthly sessions we will be running in partnership with Great Yarmouth Borough Council from the Town Hall. Whether you’re a member or non-member these are a great opportunity to come and meet us to find out how we can support your business. As we run more sessions we will also have business experts with us who can give advice and guidance on a variety of topics – we’d actually love to hear from you about what kind of expert advice your business could benefit from, please get in touch with us using the details below.
How will they look? Initially we will be running morning networking sessions, 09:30 – 11:30, from the space to encourage local businesses to connect with not only ourselves but also each other. Each week we’ll have a different guest speaker with us covering a range of topics useful to any business. There will be plenty of tea and coffee to keep everyone hydrated and we might even throw in some biscuits! The chamber team will then be available for a further two hours to allow anyone to drop in over lunchtime to say hi, asks questions, find out more about us, whatever you need. The rest of the day will then be spent visiting businesses in the area who want to explore membership further or just want to see our lovely faces.
What happens now? These really are your sessions so as we run them we’d love your feedback to make sure they’re as successful as possible, we welcome all fantastic ideas about how we can benefit our members and the wider business community in Norfolk. For all the early birds out there there’s no need to panic, our networking breakfasts are continuing as normal (we love them as much as you do) Coastal Co.nnect is just another way for us to support our lovely members in East Norfolk.
I’d love to get involved… If you’re an expert in your field and would like to volunteer some of your precious time to help fellow business-people in the Greater Yarmouth area, please get in touch. These sessions are designed to add value to the business community so anyone who’s interested in passing on their expertise in a non-salesy way will be warmly welcomed. We’d love to hear from you!
Sounds amazing, when and where are they? All sessions will be held in the Assembly Room at Great Yarmouth Town Hall, the first is Thursday 16th May.
