We talked on LinkedIn about setting up a regular #internalcomms networking event in the IoIC Central Region - and so we're giving it a go! Thanks to all of you who shared your opinions, suggestions and gave your support.
Huge thanks to Alex Bird, IC Specialist at Bromford for being quick off the mark and offering to host our first event, which will be held at the Bromford offices (Next to Costa Coffee in Friars Gate) just off the M42 on the edge of Birmingham.
You're a legend Alex!
The events are designed to be easy to manage, host and attend, and we'll try and rotate them around the Central region and hold them either monthly or bi-monthly.
