Executive Lunch

30 November 2017 With some very kind sponsorship from Barclays Bank, the Chamber hosted an Executive Lunch at Chamber member, DoubleTree by Hilton London Greenwich. Barclays also provided a wonderful speaker in the form of William Hobbs, Head of Investment Strategy, Europe. Mr Hobbs proved his expert credentials, delivering a presentation that was equal parts informative and goodhumoured.

The past year has proven itself tumultuous both economically and politically: it was refreshing to receive a optimistic economic forecast from the proverbial horse’s mouth. It should go without saying that audience feedback was rather positive.

The DoubleTree by Hilton proved to be the most gracious of hosts; the venue and hospitality was at such a level that many of our guests stayed long after the event’s planned closing time.

Christmas On Top Of The World

14 December 2017 The Chamber’s festive gathering took place at the esteemed Award Winning Everest Inn, a regular Chamber haunt.

All were reached out to all for this celebration attendance came from both within and outside the Chamber’s membership; from companies large and small, members old and new. The guest of honour was the Mayor of Lewisham, Sir Steve Bullock who praised this successful Lewisham business. Perhaps it was the season, perhaps the venue, or maybe even the wine; but this all made for a delightfully festive event. Christmas on Top of the World was a also culinary adventure.

A unique blend of the Nepalese and the Festive: traditional turkey and brussel sprouts cooked with Nepalese spices was one of the star dishes.
