Join us as we re-visit West Suffolk to hold our Safari Networking & Exhibition event!

On Tuesday 8th October we will not only have our extremely popular Safari Networking event taking place, we will also be holding an exhibition at the XR Lab at the University and Professional Development centre in Bury St Edmunds. 

We will be running two Safari Networking Sessions throughout the morning. 

Safari Session 1 - 9:00am start 

Safari Session 2 - 10:30am start 

Safari sessions will be booked on a first come first served basis and your allocated time slot will be sent across to you within your confirmation email. Please ensure you are free to attend at either time.

The exhibition will take place from 8:30am-12:00pm providing the opportunity to explore and free network before and after each Safari Session.

We will have a number of businesses from across the county and from Cambridge Chambers of Commerce who will be exhibiting. West Suffolk College will also be showcasing some of their amazing Virtual Reality technology on the day.

Exhibition Stands are available, if you are interested in exhibiting at this event please email hannah@suffolkchamber.co.uk.

 £75 + VAT per stand to include 2 attendees & 1 ticket to Safari Networking. Refreshments included. 

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 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.

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.

Structured safari networking takes away any daunting feelings you may have towards networking and approaching people for the first time.

This event is in Partnership with West Suffolk College and Cambridge Chambers of Commerce as part of the West Suffolk Business Festival.

Please feel free to share this event with all colleagues and employees within your business who may benefit from a gentle introduction to business networking.
