Report on 2011 show
Exhibitor comment
"We had an excellent event, attracting dozens of local business owners to our stand... it was really exciting to see the energy from local entrepreneurs who are committed to 'making stuff happen' locally."
Vanessa Lanham-Day, Entrepreneur's Circle
"This year's exhibition was great for RBLI Print & Mail. This is our third year and as usual the run-in and management of the day was first class. Very good quality discussion with visitors and other exhibitors.
Mike Tuohy, RBLI
"It was a super successful day for us. It brought a string of new introductions and a very positive attitude from everyone present. We took a number of firm bookings for the Guildford show which we will be running with Paul Webster."
Paul Bridgland, Best of Guildford
"Woking Means Business is just that - it means new business for me. For the 7th year running I met lots of new people who may turn into clients and two who already have! There's no doubt I will be there again next year."
Mike Booker, MB Web Services
"We certainly had a good response and quickly identified that many people who visited our stand were looking for better chairs to assist them in making their working life more comfortable."
Phil Johns, Healthy Home Office
"The show made us proud to be in business in Woking. We learned some great stuff in the seminars and met some interesting and diverse businesses that were new to us. A well organised and professional show!"
Rosalind Howard, The Naked Leader
...and a comment from Jonathan Lord, MP for Woking who spoke at the pre-show seminar and spent time visiting stands and talking to exhibitors:
"Our country will only get back to prosperity through growth, and that means growth in the private sector. We rely on our businesses to create much-needed jobs and for the taxes that pay for all our public services. It is wonderful to see the entrepreneurial spirit alive and well in Woking and playing its part in ensuring the future success of our town and of Great Britain Plc.
My congratulations to Woking Chamber for organising such a great event."
Leader of Woking Borough Council, Cllr John Kingsbury, had this to say about the event:
"I am very pleased to have had the opportunity of speaking at the breakfast seminar prior to the opening of Woking Means Business to tell delegates and exhibitors of the Council's plans to stimulate growth in the town, which should help to provide more jobs. I was extremely impressed with this year's exhibition and the range of products and services being offered here in Woking. The Council appreciates the work of Woking Chamber and will continue to do all it can to support local businesses, especially during the current tough economic climate.
Once again, congratulations on a very impressive exhibition."
