CONNECT The Business Exchange Bath & Somerset launch On September 21, 220 people from across the South West came together to celebrate the launch of The Business Exchange Bath & Somerset. The event was held at Bath's prestigious Assembly Rooms and movers and shakers from across the region descended on the historic venue for a great night of networking and presentations. The evening was sponsored by Searcys who provided delicious canapes and refreshments for guests to enjoy. The night was organised with the help of Morgan Brinkhurst Consultancy and special guests included the Mayor and Mayoress of Bath, the Chairman of the Council and Ben Howlett MP. Anita Jaynes, the magazine's publisher said: "We would like to thank everyone that attended for making the night such a success and our valued advertisers for helping us get this project off the ground. Without you we wouldn’t have landed."
