Hello all. It has been an incredibly busy couple of months in the world of ISSBA. Anglia Business Exhibition 2017 was fantastic and a credit to everyone that was either involved or attended. It was great to see so many people there enjoying the event. Read my full report on ABE17 here.
The next ISSBA event is our AGM on 28th June at Dan’s Meadow near Woodbridge. To complement our summery venue, we are looking forward to welcoming Ruth from The Paella & Tapas Company who will be providing some delicious food for us to enjoy alongside networking. This is your chance to find out more about plans for the coming year as well as ask questions or have your say. The AGM is free to attend but please click here to book so we have an idea on numbers.
We still have a space for a sponsor/speaker for our AGM so please let us know asap if you are interested. If you have something to talk about that you think your fellow members would be interesting in hearing, please get in touch.
