Welcome to The Very Early Lunch Club

The Very Early Lunch Club (VELC) is your first choice for business support and networking in Bury St Edmunds. Held monthly at Nowton Court, membership is free and events are both business-focused and sociable – the perfect atmosphere to meet like-minded, local business owners and develop lasting relationships.

 

Fun, relaxed and effective business support and networking - welcome to the Very Early Lunch Club in Bury St Edmunds.

 

Running from 7:30am until 9:30am at Nowton Court Village in Bury St Edmunds, the Very Early Lunch Club is dedicated to creating opportunities for local business owners and key decision makers to nurture new business relationships in a welcoming, relaxed and supportive environment.

 


 

What makes the VELC different?

 

  • You don't have to pay a membership fee
  • There is no requirement or pressure to attend every meeting
  • There's no need to send a substitute is you are unable to attend a meeting
  • Guests are welcome at any time
  • There is no pressure to give referrals - a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere means that referrals are willingly offered
  • You won't get stuck in a rut - the Very Early Lunch Club loves table hopping, which means that you will meet more people over breakfast

 


 

Who will be attending?

 

The Very Early Lunch Club is already one of the premier business support and networking clubs in the region, already running successfully in Cambridge and now, with a new venue in Bury St Edmunds, it's set to be the networking event of choice for key decision makers from all sectors, including:

 

  • Professionals
  • Retailers
  • Tradespeople
  • Large and small business owners
  • Sales people
  • Managers
  • Executives
  • Not-for-profit representatives

 

The Very Early Lunch Club does not limit the amount of representatives from one industry, as each and every business is unique and many former competitors often end up working alongside each other.

 

And don't forget that the VELC loves guests - the more the merrier! By increasing the size of the group, business owners are much more likely to find new clients, business allies and suppliers.
