Alton Business Club
The aims of ABC are to provide an opportunity for networking in a relaxing atmosphere and for Alton’s business community to meet, learn about each other’s capabilities and discuss topics pertaining to their own business/services or matters which may affect the local community. The intention being to encourage inter-trading, as well as a platform for new ventures.
The Club meets on the first Tuesday of each month at The Crown Hotel, on the corner of Crown Hill and Church Street (01420 84567) for a Buffet Lunch at £7 per head. Members start arriving at 12.30 and lunch is at 1 o’clock. Business matters begin at 1.30, which include an up-date on any items of interest relating to the Club. Those attending will briefly introduce themselves and their own company, followed by a speaker(s), normally a Club member, giving an informative presentation or focusing on any issues that need addressing within the local area.
The membership consists of a multitude of different enterprises and is not confined to Alton alone. We seek to bring more skills into the town and local area and as such we have forged strong links with the Alton Chamber of Commerce, the Alton Initiative Manager and other networking groups in the town.
The benefits of belonging to the ABC include the fact that the membership fee is only £10 per annum. There is an on-line directory together with a free monthly newsletter, which is circulated by post to allow advertising material to be distributed and permits those who cannot attend to be kept up-to-date.
