Local networking a success at Churchill Square Business Centre

We’re all about creating a community of businesses for our customers, so we were delighted to have recently hosted the Kent Invicta Chamber Connections event at our Kings Hill business centre, providing our customers with a chance to meet likeminded people in business. This was our first time hosting this event, but hopefully not our last. Here’s our round-up of the event.

An exciting collaboration

Having been members of Kent Invicta Chamber of Commerce since spring this year, we were very excited to host one of their most popular networking events at Churchill Square Business Centre. It was a huge success, with over 100 businesses from all over Kent attending the Chamber Connections event which was sponsored by local Kings Hill based law firm Knights.

Our meeting rooms and reception was packed with SMEs enjoying hot drinks and delicious pastries, sandwiches and fruit supplied by the centre’s nominated charity of the year, The Gillingham Street Angels, a local charity working to reduce homelessness and food poverty.

Thoughts on the day

The chamber’s marketing and events executive Henry Mileham said: “We had the pleasure of bringing one of our busy Chamber Connections Networking events to Churchill Square Business Centre this month. They were able to accommodate well over 100 guests on the day and the centre catered to all our needs and requirements. No ask was too much for the team at Churchill Square. The team went above and beyond to make this event memorable. We will definitely be back in the future!”

Centre manager Toni Wilkinson said: “The entire reception team, including our facilities handyperson Mark, worked exceptionally hard to host this event. We were thrilled with the opportunity to showcase our meeting rooms and facilities to a wider audience of small businesses from all over Kent. It was also great to see so many of our onsite office customers in attendance. We can’t wait to host another one again sometime soon!”

We are always looking for ways to offer support to our customers, and we know networking can be an invaluable way for helping SME’s to grow. As well as Kent Invicta events, we have just started hosting female networking group, Ladies who Latte, at our Croydon business centre.
