Installer support organisation Independent Network (powered by Veka) is putting the final plans into place for its ever-popular members’ weekend.
Backed by a host of sponsors, the event will be held on Saturday 16 June 2018 at the Chesford Grange Hotel in Warwickshire.
Head of partner pogrammes Karen Lund explains: “We’re always encouraging member companies to come together for training events and such, to discuss business, share ideas and celebrate their success, and the ‘big event’ on the IN calendar is the Members’ Weekend. This annual event has always gone down a storm, as it combines a valuable, business-boosting afternoon with a celebratory, black-tie awards evening.
“The day’s attendees will get the chance to visit the Affiliate Business Centre and discuss the great products and services available through IN’s affiliate partners. There are 18 affiliates exhibiting so far, covering topics such as qualifications, health and safety, legal advice, hardware and associated installer products.
“Guests will then attend the AGM to hear all the latest developments and marketing news from the organisation. This year, the conference will be hosted by Business Consultant Specialist Jeff Grout, who is listed among the 100 best business speakers in Britain.
“The conference will provide another opportunity for companies to get to grips with the new online marketing portal, where Veka and Halo installers can find a one-stop-shop full to bursting with marketing support, using a single sign in. We’ve even offered all attendees a fantastic £300 voucher to spend on their marketing!
“Later, we’ll be joined by Football Presenter Chris Kamara to present the evening’s awards at the black-tie Gala Dinner.
