Events Update

Welcome to 2012 all and probably my last events blog as I hand over the events reins gradually to Madeleine McDougall.

JANUARY: Many thanks to all of you who attended the January drinks party. This was a very successul evening, with a great turn out. We hope to make this a regular feature of the events calendar.

FEBRUARY:
There are still places available at the insurance breakfast seminar on February 21st if anyone has not yet signed up. If you have property specialists in the team who are not APB members but would like to come along give me a call and we will try and accommodate them.

Maddie has now circulated details of our 2012 Pub Quiz on February 29th. Stephenson Harwood have once again very kindly agreed to sponsor this popular event. A big thank you to them from the APB Board.

February 28th is also a date for your diary. The Property Banking Forum are arranging their next event for this evening. Details to follow, but both APB and IPF members will be invited.

MARCH: Addleshaw Goddard have very kindly agreed to host an exclusive event for our members due to attend MIPIM. They will host an informal coffee morning on Thursday 8th March from 11am until 12.30pm at Villa Antoine, 3 rue Jean Baptiste Dumas. Last year this was very well supported and a great opportunity to mix with other APB members in a beautiful setting close to La Croisette.
RSVP vicky.herd@addleshawgoddard.com.
Details of our Non-MIPIM drinks event to follow.

SEPTEMBER: Save the Date for the APB's Annual Golf and Networking Day - September 19th 2012.

Many thanks all

The APB September Events Blog

Good afternoon all,

We have a busy run up to Christmas scheduled, with some of the highlights being our Annual Dinner, our Annual Seminar and our Golf, Spa and Networking Day. Given our busy schedules we have decided to postpone our usual Christmas Drinks to January; something to look forward to as we embark up on 2012.

Details of upcoming events:

Thursday 15th September: Networking drinks to be held at Corney & Barrow CityPoint from 5.30pm. As usual, this is a casual arrangement, with all welcome to join us for a catch up over a glass of wine. The APB sponsors the first round of drinks.

Tuesday 27th September: The APB 2011 Golf, Leisure and Networking day, kindly sponsored by Capita Symonds. This will be held at Foxhills, with golf, spa and golf clinic options. Spa places still available at a cost of £35 for a full day with treatment and lunch.

Tuesday 11th October: the Annual General Meeting will be held at LUNCHTIME on the 11th October at Corney and Barrow Paternoster Square from 12.30pm. The formal proceedings will be followed by a drinks reception.

EVENTS UPDATE

An events update:

Tuesday 12th July:
places are still available for the CBRE Seminar next Tuesday evening covering the secondary property market and the equity, debt and property issues that are likely to impact on the short and medium term future of this market.

Thursday 15th September: Networking drinks to be held at Corney & Barrow CityPoint. As usual, this is a casual arrangement, with all welcome to join us for a catch up over a glass of wine. The APB sponsors the first round of drinks.

Tuesday 27th September: The APB 2011 Golf, Leisure and Networking day, kindly sponsored by Capita Symonds. This will be held at Foxhills, with golf, spa and golf clinic options. The cost of this day has been greatly reduced from previous years (£35) as a result of some generous sponsorship from Capita Symonds, who will join us on the day. This is a great networking opportunity, with normally circa 50 members attending. I would encourage as many of our new members to attend as possible as it really is a great way of getting to know some of the other members in a relaxed environment.

Tuesday 11th October: the Annual General Meeting will be held at LUNCHTIME on the 11th October. We are testing a move from the usual evening format to try and encourage better attendance. It is extremely important to the Board that we get your feedback on what we are doing right for our members and what you would prefer we did differently. We would encourage you all to attend this meeting, which will be followed by a lunch and drinks reception.

Thursday 13th October: Annual Conference. Details to follow, but likely to be a 2pm start, with a drinks reception in the evening following the conference.

Thursday 3rd November: Annual Dinner. Members tables now available. Contact margot.waddup@eurohypo.com for more details.

Kind regards

Events Update

Many thanks to all of those members and friends who attended the 20th Anniversary Summer Party this week. It was a wonderful, relaxed evening and a great opportunity to catch up with everyone.

I will be turning my attention to the entertainment package for the Annual Dinner next so if any of you have any great ideas or contacts please do give me a call or email me; it needs to be good to top last year!

Kind regards

Margot

2010 Christmas Drinks

A very good morning to all our members on this snowy London morning. A short reminder that a week today is our 2010 Christmas Drinks. The Board would be delighted to see as many of you as possible in Corney & Barrow CityPoint from 5.30 onwards. I have had over 100 acceptances so it should be a great opportunity to see friends of old and enjoy some Christmas spirit.

Wishing you all a warm day.

Margot
