BUSINESS people looking to make new contacts or refresh old friendships are snapping up spaces for the first networking lunch of 2018 at Holiday Inn Corby.
There is always a good turnout for these lunches at the conveniently-located hotel which has undergone a major transformation over the past few years.
Author Cassie Farren is the guest speaker at this lunch on Wednesday, 24 January from 12.30pm to 2pm. After a delicious buffet lunch there is a chance to hear about life, family and motivation from Cassie, the woman behind the best-selling book The Girl Who Refused to Quit. There will also be a chance for people to network during the 90 minutes.
The £15 ticket price, includes VAT and a £3 donation to the charity, The Stroke Association.
The lunch is an opportunity to see first-hand the venue’s impressive makeover which means it is now possible to host events for over 700 people.
The Manor Suite can hold up to 350 people, and the Heart Suite, formerly the Corbie Suite, offers fresh alternatives to those looking to host an event which needs a versatile, fresh-looking space for up to 175 people.
Another area is the Ace Suite (formerly Millers Restaurant) which can accommodate up to 150 with a theatre-style set up or, with the clever use of partitions, can suit the needs of smaller groups by splitting the space in to areas called Joker, Club and Ace.
The meeting rooms once available on the hotel’s first floor have now been turned in to bedrooms to bring the hotel’s bedroom quota up to 110.
It means visitors can be rightly impressed with the hotel’s facilities which include free high speed wi-fi on site, a refurbished on-site gym, fitness and pool area 3D Health and Fitness Corby and the beauty salon Pampered and Polished.
The Open Lobby space, which is open to non-residents, boasts a dining area which includes a chefs’ station, bar and a ‘to go’ cafe where the team are proud to serve Starbucks coffee.
