M4 Business Network Announces Line-Up for 2011
The programme of events for the 2011 M4 Business Network Organisation will kick off in style this month with the first event of the year with outspoken television presenter Janet Street Porter.
Ms Porter will be the guest speaker at the event on Tuesday March 15 and will be followed by an impressive line-up throughout the year featuring cricket legend Mike Gatting, BBC technology correspondent Rory Cellan-Jones and Wales Rugby Union chief Roger Lewis.
The popular networking event is held four times a year at the Celtic Manor Resort. It is designed to fit into the working day with a 7.30am for 7.45am start and 9am finish.
Each event gives guests the chance to network, eat a hearty breakfast and enjoy a presentation by a quality speaker. The organisation now has between 150 – 200 members attending each event.
The Network is led by chairman Steve Sulley, marketing partner at South Wales accountancy firm UHY Peacheys.
Steve said: “It’s now the third year of UHY Peacheys’ sponsorship of the M4 Business Network and we really have seen it go from strength to strength. The quality of both the speakers and the attendees is growing each year and it is now viewed as a key event in the south Wales business calendar.
“Places for each event get booked up quickly so anyone interested in attending the March event should move quickly.”
The dates for the M4 Business Network events for 2011 are as follows:
15 March – Janet Street Porter
10 May – Roger Lewis CEO of WRU
6 September – Mike Gatting Cricket Legend
