Wine Tasting at Palmisano's

29th of January, 2009

BNI Enterprise Chapter hosted its first networking with wine tasting event, recently. It provided a perfect forum for business men and women, from across London to meet, to share ideas and to discuss business opportunities, in the heart of London's West End. It was an event that was complemented by fine Italian wines selected by Tuttitalia wines and Italian cuisine prepared by Palmisanos restaurant.

More than thirty people attended the event at, Palmisano restaurant. Members of the Enterprise chapter and guests are professionals from a variety of business sectors which included: multi-linguistic recruitment, solicitors, retail consultant, IT professionals, business coach, designers, architects, financial adviser, investment bankers, to name just a few.

Leighton Dawkins BNI Enterprise director said: "The intention of the evening was to have fun, enjoy the restaurant’s fine food and wine, cultivate some new contacts and, ultimately, showcase our individual strengths and expertise. For all of those who took part, I think I can say unequivocally, it was an outstanding success, and proved to be quite memorable."

In a conversations throughout the room, guests and BNI members were able to use meaningful conversations which, in many cases, led to positive potential business opportunities. One member was able to establish a useful contact which will be built into a useful ongoing business partnership in the coming months. A guest was able to let a member know about business services that would be of great benefit to her business – this is evidence that potential business opportunities do exist and the BNI Enterprise Chapter's wine tasting evening has helped to encourage these.

Carlo, Director of Tuttitalia said: "The evening has been a great success. I have to thank BNI myself for encouraging me to organise such event for the biggest business network in the world. BNI’s Enterprise chapter at London Bridge, Palmisano and Tuttitalia have been the perfect ingredients for a full flavoured business meeting, a recipe that I’m happy to replicate in the future. “
