As you know, I’m a great believer in networking and I try to go to a wide selection of meetings to see which ones work for me. I am a member of Women in Business and 4B Networking and also regularly attend Tweet Marbella. I really enjoy all of these meetings and have benefited a lot from them, but if you’re not in the mood, it’s easy to simply speak to people you know and not take full advantage of the networking opportunities. Also, as I have become busier, I find it harder to fit in long and sociable networking lunches.
For these reasons, I was really keen to go to the inaugeration of the Costa Business Club at the end of September and try out their Speed Networking format. For those of you who don’t know, speed networking gives you the opportunity to meet loads of different people by restricting the time each person speaks to 3 minutes and moving people around when their time is up.
I've been told that the First meeting of the Curry Link Networking Group is taking place tomorrow (the 21st) at Saffron in Elviria, sorry for the short notice! It sounds like quite a nice idea, with a monthly curry for 20€ per head (including IVA)...

I have been a bit remiss of late and have been missing some networking functions because I’ve just been too busy, so to make up for it (and to start distributing my new leaflets) I have booked myself in for a load of new networking over the coming weeks. Here’s a run down of all those I’m going to with their websites. Please comment on this post if you know of any more.

Detailed programs of the titles, subjects and times can be found in the Marbella Tourist Offices in Marbella and Puerto Banus, the Marbella Casino, Hotel H10 Andalucia Plaza and at the stands of Antonio Banderas plaza in Puerto Banus or online at www.marbellafilmfestival.com.
I’d really suggest you take advantage of this if you like culture. We went along to last year’s film festival and there was a great programme of films and entertainment, totally free, but hardly anyone was there! I think this is crazy when it’s such a great event, so this is your second chance to see some of the best bits. I hope you’ll be able to make it.
Here is the full programme:
You're invited to attend the second in the series of summer concerts to be held at this atmospheric castle later this month. The first concert got rave reviews, with the Sur in English saying "sensational evening...
