Chamber Dinner goes for Gold 

The Bath Chamber of Commerce and Initiative in B&NES Annual Dinner 2010 will be held in the Claverton Rooms at the University of Bath on Wednesday May 19^th.

With Guest Speaker David Hemery CBE

Bath Chamber of Commerce and the Initiative in B&NES, which represents the voice of business across the district is providing a first class opportunity to meet up with old friends, make valuable contacts and hear an inspirational talk from an Olympic Champion.

David Hemery electrified the whole country when he won the gold medal in a world record breaking time in the 400m hurdles at the Mexico Games of 1968. And he went on to take Olympic silver and bronze in Munich four years later.

Now, as Vice Chairman of the British Olympic Association, he is not only eager to maximise the sporting legacy from the London 2012 games, but he is passionate about working with business people with one aim in mind – to bring the best out of both ourselves and others.

An engaging speaker, David has the knowledge and experience to know what makes a champion.

The University of Bath is the perfect venue since it is already home to multiple Olympic medallists, the latest of whom was Amy Williams who won gold in Vancouver in the bob skeleton. Now they are gearing up to welcome the Great Britain Paralympic team and other Olympic athletes who will be based there as preparations for London go ahead.

Chamber President, Frank Collins, is confident the event will prove to be a great success: "We have the perfect backdrop for what promises to be an enjoyable and inspiring evening with the opportunity to hear from a genuinely world class performer in the shape of David Hemery. I have high hopes that the business community will enthusiastically support our event and I am very much looking forward to welcoming them to the Claverton Rooms."

Tickets are £50 + VAT per person, open to members and guests. To book online go to www.gwebusinesswest.co.uk
