Women in Business - Christmas Celebration and Networking Event

Women in Business are hosting a Christmas celebration and networking event at The Royal Hotel Scarborough on Friday 27 November, from 12:00 to 14:00. It's a lunchtime gathering run by Britannia Hotels, so you can drop in over your break and be back at your desk by the afternoon.

The room will be set up with Christmas nibbles and mulled wine, and festive attire is welcome, so if you've been looking for an excuse to wear something a bit more seasonal to a work event, this is a good spot for it. It's an in-person afternoon, not a formal sit-down, which keeps it easy to move around and talk to people rather than staying stuck in one conversation.

They're aiming the afternoon at professionals, entrepreneurs, startup founders and networking enthusiasts, so the room should be a mix of people running their own things and those working within established businesses. If you're in the middle of building a startup or just want to meet other women working across the town, it's a straightforward way to get a few new names and faces in your book before the Christmas break properly kicks in.

Entry is free, and you book your place through Eventbrite. It runs from 12:00 to 14:00 at The Royal Hotel on Saint Nicholas Street, Scarborough YO11 2HE.
