7:15 pm Michael Heaven in his UK Premiere.

9:00 pm Draw of the raffle

10pm Carriages (althought some like to stay one a little...)

Networking is fun and exhilarating, you will meet new people, business partners, friends, perhaps even partner in life... If you feel a bit shy come to a host and they will introduce you to people or just speak with you for a while.

Profile of people attending are: Doctors, Lawyers, Bankers, Hedge Funds owner, Property Developers, CEO of Top Companies in UK and the World, Actors, Musicians, Singers, Models and others in the entertainment and communication industry, some are students too aspiring to network with people in the know and other looking at their next step in their careers. All very nice people in a relaxed atmosphere.

Let me have your name and email address for you and your guests for the guest list after your clicked on the registration and let me know what you would like to find out or need help with: suppliers, financial advise, insurance, clients or anything else that can help you further your businesses or career or just come and see who is there.

With regard to the fee which is certainly low: what you are paying does not include necessarily a drink, the Network is free but we have to pay for the Website, papers and helpers and have yet to recoup any money invested in this. If there is a drink, the venue generously provides for it. Some venues like Verta and Millbank Tower were particularly generous this year. If you have some idea how to generate revenues to the Network, please get in touch, if you feel like donating more, please do so this will be acknowledged if you want to and could act as a very good cost efficient advertising for you and your company. If you would like to avertise your goods, products and/or services reaching over 100,000 professionals in the world, please ask me

Please join the Network here.

Full cash bar is in operation and further nibbles can be purchased from the bar.

I look forward to seeing you and your friends and colleagues to make meaningful business and/or social contacts.

With very best wishes,

Yours,

Jean-Francois.

P.S.: There are other events in exclusive locations for those who joined the network. Any events that you might like me to organise please get in touch.
