NI Chamber brings online networking to Lisburn businesses

The business support organisation has teamed up with Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council to deliver a structured networking session for firms across the council area. It has been designed to provide a boost to business development activities, helping attendees to expand their professional networks and grow their sales pipelines.

Hosted on a new and interactive digital platform, it will replicate the in-person networking experience, with the ability to choose where and who you ‘sit’ with. Delegates will also have the option to move between tables, exchange contact details and deliver an elevator pitch with other guests.

In addition, attendees will have the opportunity to hear an expert panel discuss the role of technology in post pandemic recovery, what skills are needed and the support available through colleges and local government. That panel will include Patrick Leggett, Group Director, Xperience Group, Elaine Flynn, Head of Business Services, SERC and Paul McCormick, Head of Economic Development Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council.

This event is free for NI Chamber members to attend. To register, visit northernirelandchamber.com.
