Networking in style!
On Wednesday 12 October, we had a fun and chatty group of business owners join us for our October Networking event that was held at the very gorgeous Haus of Frazer in Beaumaris.
As the bar is only open at night, we had the whole venue to ourselves which was great.
Setting up in the beautiful bright and elegant Arches room, we ran some interactive activities so guests could meet as many people in the room as possible and with no awkward moments. As always, the event begins with guests arriving and being allocated into a pre-determined group where they need to figure out what it is they have in common. Once everyone had arrived, had a dose of caffeine and was feeling comfortable, we played an activity that was a combination of speed networking and quick-fire questions. Guests had to pair off and each person had 2 minutes to ask a series of leading questions. After two minutes, it was the next persons turn. Once each person had asked and answered, it was time to find a new partner – rinse and repeat!
After the activities were done and everyone knew each other a bit more, it was time for a delicious morning tea by the talented Gen from Genie’s Hole In The Wall. Hot from the oven, we enjoyed gourmet, handmade sausage rolls, party pies, apple & cinnamon scrolls and more.
After the networking event, a couple of us stayed behind for a few hours of co-working – our first time running a space like this and whilst we can’t say we were all that productive, we all got to know each other a bit more, had some brainstorming moments, but most of all, had a LOT of laughs. It was really fun and we look forward to doing it again!
A big thank you to Lina and Ben from Haus of Frazer for having us and to Gen from Genie’s Hole In The Wall for feeding us all.
The biggest thanks though goes to the legends that joined us!
We always walk away from these events feeling a great sense of community.
Next event – our Christmas Lunch on the 9 November, SAVE THE DATE!
