Chamber Expo wins the crowds

28 Mar, 2014

On Wednesday 5^th March 2014 members of the ISO Quality Services Ltd team attended the Hereford and Worcester Chamber Business Expo, which took place at the Three Counties Show Ground in Malvern, Worcestershire.  Over 800 delegates attended the event with 100 exhibitors!

The Expo, one of the Chamber’s most popular type of networking event, is a great opportunity for businesses to network and gain crucial business contacts, as well as promoting their company and raising the profile within the community.

This is the second Hereford and Worcester Chamber Expo that we have attended in six months and both have put us in contact with many new companies, which have turned out to be new clients and suppliers.

The Expo started off with a massively popular networking breakfast, with words from President of the Chamber, Jim McBride and Louise Hewett, Hewett Recruitment.  The exhibition zone was officially opened at 9.00am, followed by four seminars running throughout the day.  We were lucky enough to be one of the four companies providing seminars for the day, in which we spoke about the power of exhibiting and is it worth it!?  There was also a networking zone and the Chamber offered visitors and exhibitors the chance to have a go at the ‘Chamber Cube’ challenge! Which attracted a lot of interest and some very competitive behaviour – who’d have thought it!?

Water Cooler World sponsored the event, Michael Williams, Director, commented, ‘It was a fantastic day, we were busy all day. There was a great footfall and great leads.’

At the event many of the exhibitors held a business card draw where delegates are able to put there business card into a pot to win a prize, these can range from a number of things from a bottle of champagne to a place on our Quality Manager Training Course!  We would like to say congratulations to Tom Blakeman from GRG Engineers who was lucky enough to win the place!
