Networking in Surrey

What represents value to you when you attend a Networking event?

As an event organiser that facilitates Networking events, I am always keen to understand what elements could I add that would enhance everyone's experience and add perceived value to each and every one of them if I could.

Some say its all about the speaker. Some suggest of course its who they meet and whether they could be someone that they might have a transaction with. Others it's the ambiance, the venue, the drinks and finger food to bring a relaxed winding down to their hectic day with some light conversations with business men and women.

What is it that makes you feel an event has given you real value in whatever currency or form that happens to be?

Hi Andrew, I always like to learn something each day, even if it is 'don't use Service XX because it doesn't provide Customer Service.'

Some laughter is always good to have too, but a lot of that is down to the people.

Hi Andrew - I guess for me, at the end of the day, its the potential business opportunities through the connections made. However, the ambience, the welcome, and the people themselves, are the aspects that would make we want to attend again!

Thank you Ladies for your responses. I hope my next event here is one you can both attend http://www.business-scene.com/event_detail.php?e=13675 and that it meets what you like to find at an event.
