On Thursday 12th November, over 90 members joined us for a Business Breakfast at the Great Yarmouth Town Hall. The venue provided a great setting in the spacious Assembly Room where delegates networked over coffee and breakfast, followed by two presentations discussing the event theme; Trends in the Energy Industry.
In true chamber style, the morning kicked off with a networking activity that was sure to test how awake the delegates were and highlight the energy industry buffs as we got them to solve the Missing Vowel Quiz.
The event was hosted by the President of Great Yarmouth Chamber Council Andy Penman, who was passionate about the subject matter and content provided by our featured speakers Johnathan Reynolds, Nautilus Associates and Joanna Young, ScottishPower renewables.
Two great presentations were delivered by these industry experts, which are now available to view on the event page at your leisure.
Johnathan offered a local energy industry update, complete with some interesting and revealing statistics, whilst Joanna (having stepped in last minute to replace her colleague David Rowland), informed the delegates of the EA1 Offshore Wind Project which is rapidly progressing and subsequently creating many opportunities within the region.
We closed the event with a short Q&A, after which, many delegates took this opportunity to talk further with the speakers and get in some final networking to make those all-important contacts.
Here’s what some of the delegates tweeted about the event:
