About the Event
Join us for our fun and informative second lunch session at Paten & Co. in Stamford! This in-person event will take place at the Paten & Co. Bistro next to the Crown Hotel on June 26th.
The event will start at 11:30 and run as late as 14.30 if necessary. Upon entry, you will be greeted by one of the team members and be able to confirm your order for lunch. If a meal hasn’t been picked 5 days prior to the event, then an option will have been picked for you of Falafel or the Cluck Norris Burger.
The event is to help SME’s for free and just pass on some tried and tested digital and physical marketing strategies that can help your business push forward. This event is catered to SME’s with both specific KPIs and a more generalised marketing strategy. The ticket cost is to cover your food and drinks; everything else is free!
