Made in the Midlands Breakfast Networking events provide members with a fantastic opportunity to attend a local manufacturing company to discuss potential collaborations or future business ideas. Charles advised: I would recommend anybody doing it, if you have the opportunity to do it. We would gladly host one again. I think these events are really good at getting people through the doors. Because that's what business is about, it's about getting that exposure and getting your name out there into the marketplace and if the opportunity is there, then people should take that opportunity.

Charles also provided a fantastic testimonial on why manufacturing or engineering companies should seize the opportunity to become a part of the most successful privately run peer group for MD's and CEO's within the Midlands, as he said: its very important actually, a lot of people ask me 'How beneficial is Made in the Midlands? For me, it's not all of our marketing, but it is a good channel for marketing, it's a trade organisation where you get to meet people and network with people. It is another channel to get your name out there and its' definitely something that people should take advantage of.
