[UKPRwire, Sun Sep 30 2007] THE Inaugural Meeting of the Elite Ayrshire Business Circle took place on Wednesday 26 September 2007 at the Clydesdale Bank Financial Solutions Centre in Alloway Street, Ayr.
Clydesdale Bank Financial Solutions Centre managing partner Willie Mackie welcomed members to a buffet breakfast, before outlining the range of business banking services available from the Clydesdale, and the conference and meeting facilities provided to customers and non-customers alike at the recently revamped and refurbished Financial Solutions Centre.
Elite Ayrshire Business Circle executive chairman Norman Geddes then thanked Willie Mackie for his hospitality in hosting the meeting, and went on to summarise the aims and purposes of the newly formed Business Circle, namely to significantly raise the business profile of individual member companies both at home and abroad, as well as increasing awareness of Ayrshire in general as a worthwhile place in which to do business.
Norman then proceeded to invite members to give a brief introduction to their own businesses, including latest news and developments.
The meeting was generally agreed to have been a success.
Willie Mackie commented: “The energy and enthusiasm shown by the Circle members was very infectious. It was great to hear of so many success stories and how many of the members were looking to move their businesses forward.”
Norman Geddes concluded: “The contributions from members highlighted the dynamic business community which exists within Ayrshire. We look forward to working together to promote the interests of all members.”
The next meeting of The Elite Ayrshire Business Circle will take place on 14 November at Ayr Racecourse. It will feature a presentation on Marketing by Stephen Cosh, managing director of Ayrshire creative agency Paligap.
