Around 70 members and guests joined us for Business After Hours at Quest Apartments/Atlantis Seafood Restaurant on Monday. Lots of new faces there... so plenty of networking opportunities for our members. If you brought a guest, do encourage them to join us and get the most out of our benefits.

Guests enjoyed the delicious food from George Andreou’s Atlantis Seafood Restaurant; for several members Atlantis is a regular place to eat. If Monday night was your first visit we guarantee you’ll be back!

Andrew Edsor of Quest Apartments gave guided tours of the apartments, and was delighted to tell guests he had a full house that night - very encouraging at the moment as the hospitality industry is feeling the economic pinch.

We welcomed several new members on the evening and one of them, FM Recruitment Services, was drawn from our barrel as Business of the Month. Find out more here.
