About the BEA

Founded in January 2007 the Business Executives Association (Croydon) is a non-profit evening networking group for business owners and key employees in and around Croydon. In addition to connecting local businesses, the Association also raises money for local and national charities as part of our activities.

Meeting at the delightful Purley Downs Golf Club in South Croydon on the second Thursday of every month, the BEA is an ideal platform for experienced networkers to build on their current contacts and opportunities.

We also offer a friendly and relaxed introduction to networking for newer businesses.

Our monthly meetings begin at 6.20pm with informal networking before you have the opportunity to introduce yourself and your business to the room. Once you know who’s who there comes a further opportunity to talk over a finger buffet and drinks followed by a speaker on a topical subject, before retiring to the bar, if you wish, at 8.30 pm.

Like any form of networking, following up with new contacts made, connecting via social media, meeting on a one-to-one basis and sharing opportunities for business should be an on-going plan, between monthly meetings, to gain maximum benefit from the BEA.

Start today by coming to our next meeting. We look forward to welcoming you.

* Cheryl Penry - Chairman
