Chambers to hold AGMs at joint event
Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce’s two international divisions will be holding their annual meetings together this month.
The AGMs of the Greater Birmingham Transatlantic and Global Chambers of Commerce are taking place at the offices of civil engineering company Ramboll, in Cornwall Steet, Birmingham, on Thursday, 9 November.
As well as looking back on the work of the two Chambers over the past 12 months, the AGMs will offer both presidents – Transatlantic Chamber president James Tait and Global Chamber president Mark Smith – the opportunity to present awards to members who have impressed during 2023.
In addition, patrons from the respective divisions are also being invited to address delegates.
Sian Timmins, international partnerships manager at the GBCC, said: “As the Global and Transatlantic Chambers are becoming more aligned, and with greater collaboration between our two presidents, Mark Smith from Aston University and James Tait from Browne Jacobson, we have decided to host the Global and Transatlantic AGMs together.
“It is also an opportunity for the presidents to each give an award to a Chamber member they feel has stood out the most this past 12 months.
“We look forward to welcoming members from both divisions. I’d also like to thank Ramboll for offering to host the event at their city centre offices.”
