HOLIDAY Inn Corby is proving to be the place for business people who want to create new contacts or simply retain old friendships.
Key dates in the diary include the Northants Business Expo’ on Thursday, 26 April and a week later comes the next quarterly networking lunch, on Wednesday, 2 May.
Businesses can exhibit at the Expo’ for £150 including VAT and free entry for visitors means a high turnout is anticipated throughout the event which runs from 10am to 4pm.
Bob Champion makes a return visit to the venue at the networking lunch from 12.30pm to 2pm to share his experience of being a champion jockey and surviving cancer. The £17 entrance includes tea/coffee and refreshments, a delicious lunch and lots of networking opportunities. There will be a charity raffle taking place for a chance to win a signed copy of Bob’s new book, coming out in April, plus other prizes. At the end of the event, there will be a chance to meet Bob at a book signing where you will be able to buy a copy of his book. All proceeds will go to the Bob Champion Cancer Trust.
Both events will give people an opportunity to see first hand the venue’s impressive makeover which means it is now possible to host events for up to 700 people.
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 110-bedroom hotel’s facilities 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.
