Shout launches new event with Central Lancashire Business Club

Shout Network and Central Lancashire Business Club have teamed up to create a new networking event which will meet for the first time on September 11 in Leyland.

 

To be known as Shout Central Lancashire Business club, the meetings will be monthly, open to all, and fees will be on a “pay per meet” basis.

Shout Network is already an established networking organisation with 18 groups in Lancashire. However, these events will be different as they won't be single-sector only.

Ian Coupe of Shout Network hopes this will encourage all networkers to give the group a try.

He said: “This is a great opportunity for networkers of all sectors to meet with like-minded business people in a relaxed environment. Everyone will get 60 seconds to tell the room about their business and one member will do a presentation. Other than that, it’s an open opportunity to make great contacts."

The CLBC was established originally as the Chorley Business Club in 1984 to promote local trading, good business practices and collaboration with other business groups.

Steve Ward, honorary chair, believes the merger with Shout Network is a great way of taking the group forward: “Shout Network is a great fit for the CLBC, having similar principals and operating in a similar geographic area.

"I am delighted that we have come to an agreement that continues the CLBC name, and on a personal note I’m really pleased to have been asked to continue to Chair the new meetings as the Shout Central Lancashire Business Club." Details of the events can be found at www.businessclub.uk.com
