CONNECT. INFLUENCE. GROW.
The Next Generation initiative

Next Gen provides a meeting forum for entrepreneurs and professionals at the early stages of their career.
The networking is very relaxed and informal to encourage the future generation to make early business connections they can nurture throughout their careers.
The group is run and organised by members of the Next Generation Team with support and guidance from the Chamber and is suitable for professionals and entrepreneurs who may be starting a new career or business venture or at the early stages of career progression within their organisations.
