Collaboration Sparks Success

Friday 19th May, 2023

The Bridgwater Chamber, Taunton Chamber, and Somerset Chamber recently joined forces to host a highly successful joint networking event at the Canalside venue in Bridgwater.

The event brought together almost 60 businesses from across the three chambers, providing them with a unique opportunity to connect and forge valuable relationships within the local business community.

Unlike traditional networking events, this gathering embraced a casual atmosphere, allowing maximum time for business owners and professionals to engage in meaningful conversations with one another. It was an ideal environment for participants to focus solely on building connections and exploring potential collaborations.

Feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly positive, with guests expressing their satisfaction and appreciation for the event’s laid-back ambiance. The networking event proved to be a resounding success, highlighting the importance and effectiveness of such collaborative efforts between the Bridgwater Chamber, Taunton Chamber, and Somerset Chamber.

The three chambers are excited about the prospects of working together on similar events, aimed at fostering continued growth and prosperity within the shared business community. By leveraging the collective expertise and resources of the chambers, they aim to facilitate even more opportunities for networking and collaboration.

Looking ahead, the Bridgwater Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with Bridgwater Town Council, is excited to announce the upcoming Bridgwater Business Expo, set to take place on Friday 9th June 2023.
