BCHA are pleased to announce that they will be launching a new event for 2012 - the Business Brain of Bournemouth awards.

This event will allow the business community of Bournemouth to battle it out for this prestigious title by taking part in a quiz, which will include a round specifically about Bournemouth, a business round, a picture round where teams will be tasked with identifying pictures from the local area, as well as more traditional quiz rounds.

The winners of the event will be announced on the evening, and will not only walk away with the title, but also a trophy which they can proudly display for the next year.

The event, which is sponsored by the Bournemouth Chamber of Trade and Commerce, is being held on Friday 3rd February at the Norfolk Royale Hotel, with venue hire and a drinks reception sponsored by the hotel. The quiz master for the evening will be children's TV Presenter and Pantomime star, Chris Jarvis.

President of Bournemouth Chamber, Nigel P. Hedges, said, "This is a fun and welcome initiative to continue our strategy to engage all of Bournemouth's businesses through events and social functions whilst having the added benefit of assisting one of the BCTC's chosen charities."

BCHA is looking for businesses to enter teams of up to six people - team members do not need to be from the same company or based in Bournemouth. Entry is £15 per person, which will include a drinks reception and meal.

Businesses looking for an opportunity to get their name and logo in front of everyone attending are invited to sponsor a round at the event.

If anyone is interested in finding out more about sponsoring a round, would like more details about the event, or would like to enter a team, then contact Lorna Trent by calling 01202 410587 or emailing fundraising@bcha.org.uk Alternatively you can download a booking form here.
