Chamber Breakfasts
Chamber Breakfasts are held, in person, every month, bringing together a wide range of businesses. With 70+ attendees, there are lots of opportunities to meet people and network, followed by a sit-down breakfast and a different, thought-provoking speaker every month. It all adds up to a thoroughly stimulating start to the day.
The Chamber team and our ambassadors are on hand to welcome new members and help with introductions.
Why should you attend?
- Make new connections through informal networking.
- Get an introduction if there’s someone, you’d like to meet.
- Find new local customers and suppliers.
- An excellent breakfast with like-minded people at a local venue.


Pop-up Breakfasts
Once a quarter, our in-person monthly Breakfast is held at a new and exciting venue (and a little later in the morning!) Pop-up Breakfasts, as their name suggests, take place at different venues all over the city - many of them special places in their own right. They attract 40-50 attendees and are perfect for easy, friendly networking.
Like the Chamber Breakfast, Pop-ups offer a stimulating speaker, excellent opportunities to connect with others, and a delicious, cooked breakfast.
Why should you attend?
- Access a wide range of businesses to network with.
- An opportunity to learn and hear from an inspiring Brighton business.
- Later start, if you’re busy first thing.
- Different quirky venues in the city – try somewhere new each time.


Slo-mo Networking
If you like your networking to be structured without being regimented, and pacey without being frenetic, our in-person and virtual Slo-mo events are for you. It’s speed-networking, but at a more relaxed pace. You’ll get to talk about your business, moving around in small groups with other attendees, and we’ll facilitate quality introductions to any other businesses you’d like to meet.
Why should you attend?
- Structured and facilitated networking.
- The opportunity to share your business journey with like-minded people, answering key questions to help you create meaningful connections.
- Set up to maximise the number of people you meet.
- Great for people who want to focus on building networks quickly and efficiently.


Chamber socials
Our in-person socials are smaller, relaxed events - from wine and beer tasting to poker and summer parties, these evening events are a fun, easy way to get to know people, and ideal for building relationships
Why should you attend?
- Socially focused with no speaker – just the chance to make connections, build good business relationships and have fun.
- Often in the evening – ideal if you aren’t an early bird or can’t spare time from work.


Behind the Scenes tours
These popular member-only events give you privileged access to visit exciting or historical places around the city, from the Theatre Royal and the Pavilion to the Brighton Sewers and Shoreham Port. With an interesting focus, you’ll learn something new and make some great in person connections in a different and informal way.
Why should you attend?
- Enjoy a fun and informative visit to an interesting place in Brighton.
- A rare chance to go behind the scenes at some of our best-loved venues.
- More relaxed networking in a smaller group.


New Member Welcome
This is our ‘welcome to the Chamber’ event for new members, new employees, those we haven't seen for a while and members who simply want to find out more. You’ll meet between 10-20 members and get the chance to ask Chamber ambassadors how they’ve made the most of their membership.
Why should you attend?
- Find out how to make the most of your membership.
- Meet new and existing members and start building your Chamber network.
- Meet Chamber ambassadors – people who have been involved for a while and know the Chamber well – and have a chance to ask them questions.


Member Meet-ups (virtual)

You and up to six other businesses will chat about what you do, what you need support with and who you'd like to meet. Either our Head of Member Engagement, Amy Lishman, or our Membership and Marketing Executive Hannah Jackson will facilitate these online discussions for you to help you make meaningful connections.
Join us online and bring your cup of tea/coffee with you!
