A popular business club which ran in Peterborou­gh for 25 years is to be revived.

The Peterborou­gh Business Club has been renamed the Original Business Club with its meetings set to start again on September 14.

It will also meet in its former base at the Bell Inn, in Stilton. The club meet continuous­ly from 1995 to early 2020 when the outbreak of Covid-19 brought its fortnightl­y meetings to a halt.

Previously run by prominent local businessma­n Brian Soanes, the club meetings regularly attracted up to 80 local business leaders.

Now three Peterborou­ghbased business owners have stepped forward to revive the Club.

They are Joseph Reilly of marketing agency Joseph Creative, Dan Russell of telecoms company Quadrant Tech, and Mark Underwood of consultanc­y practice CMU Partners.

Mr Reilly said: “The Business Club has a long and prestigiou­s history in Peterborou­gh, and numerous valuable connection­s and relationsh­ips were developed over the years.”

He added: “We are bringing that back and will be featuring more guest speakers so that every meeting is about much more than just business networking.”

At the relaunch event, the guest speakers will be internatio­nally renowned NLP and executive coaching experts Bevis Moynan and Paul Ward who will outline the Art of Public Speaking.

Business owners and leaders can secure a free place by registerin­g at www.theorigina­lbusinessc­lub.co.uk.

A time-limited membership offer will be available to attendees at the meeting.
