Breaking the Mold of Traditional Networking

Speed Networking with a Twist: Musical Chairs at the Sussex Business Show.

The Sussex Business Show, under the innovative leadership of Sonny Cutting, has always been known for its unconventional approach to networking. This year, the event took it to a whole new level by incorporating a unique twist on speed networking: musical chairs. The last person sitting, not standing, won a bottle Highweald Wine.

What’s not to like, and you get some decent excercise in too, so no need to go to the gym after the show.

A Game-Changing Approach

Traditional speed networking can often feel rushed and impersonal. By adding the element of musical chairs, the Sussex Business Show created a more dynamic and engaging experience. As attendees rotated between different chairs, they had a limited amount of time to introduce themselves and exchange contact information. This added a sense of urgency and excitement to the networking process, encouraging attendees to be more focused and efficient.
