Suffolk Chamber of Commerce closes out its Safari Networking year in West Suffolk, with an exhibition alongside it at the XR Lab in Bury St Edmunds, run in partnership with West Suffolk College as part of the West Suffolk Business Festival.

Two guided safari sessions run through the morning. Rather than working a room full of strangers, you move between small pre-sorted groups and spend around fifteen minutes at each table, with the exhibition and free networking open either side. It is deliberately informal and open to any job role, which makes it a gentle start for anyone new to networking, or new to a role and building up contacts.

We'll be on the stand and at the networking sessions through the morning, from the doors opening at 08:30 to the exhibition closing at 12:00. Come and say hello.

Meet us at the stand or networking sessions


Millie and Mike will be there from the start to chat through where Kinabase fits with time to sit down and go through your operational questions.

  • See how teams keep their records, reporting and day-to-day operations in one place rather than six
  • Bring the spreadsheet you have been meaning to replace, or the process nobody has written down yet
  • Catch us in the free networking either side of the safari sessions, when the room is quieter

Who you'll meet
