Join us on the first stop of 2026 for the
Safari Networking and Exhibition in Ipswich!
What to expect from Safari Networking:
The format is relaxed but slightly structured to ensure you get the best possible experience, enabling you to move around the room and connect with multiple business contacts to get the best value for your time.
You will receive a warm and friendly welcome from our staff, with light refreshments upon arrival and time to network and view the exhibition at your leisure.
After a short welcome and introduction from Suffolk Chamber of Commerce, the guided safari networking will begin. For the safari networking, you will move around the room three to four times to randomly sorted, pre-allocated, intimate groups, spending around 15 minutes at each table.
The exhibition will take place from 9:30am-10:30am, pause for all to take part in the Safari Session, and then resume again from 11:45am - 12:30pm, providing the opportunity to explore and free network both before and after the Safari Session.
If you are interested in exhibiting at this event please email hannah.geater@suffolkchamber.co.uk prior to booking a ticket.
Exhibitor stands cost £95 + VAT for Members and £115 + VAT for Non-Members - stand to include 1 attendee, who will receive a ticket to the Safari Networking session.
A delegate list will be provided prior to the event, should you wish to make any specific connections on the day.
Who is this event for?
We have created a friendly, informal environment for all business people in any job role to enjoy a physical networking session. This may specifically appeal to those new to networking, or those new to a role, wanting to make those much needed business connections.
