Bath Rugby
Bath Rugby joins Calibre 100 as a corporate memeber.
We are incredibly proud to announce that Bath Rugby Ltd has joined Calibre 100 as a Corporate Member, marking another hugely exciting milestone in the continued growth of our Bath-based business network.
For us, this is about considerably more than simply welcoming one of the biggest and most recognisable organisations in the city into Calibre 100.
Bath Rugby is woven into the identity of Bath itself. It is an organisation with an extraordinary history, a huge following and a profile that reaches far beyond the city.
Having Bath Rugby become part of Calibre 100 demonstrates exactly what we hoped to achieve when the network was created: bringing together ambitious businesses, respected organisations, entrepreneurs and senior decision-makers within an environment where genuine relationships can develop.
What does this mean for Bath?
Bath has an incredible business community, but sometimes the different parts of that community can operate independently of one another.
Calibre 100 was created to help change that.
By bringing organisations such as Bath Rugby together with established businesses, professional advisers, entrepreneurs and growing companies from across Bath and the surrounding area, we can create stronger connections between the people helping to shape the economic future of our city.
It is about creating conversations that may otherwise never happen.
That could mean new commercial relationships, partnerships, introductions, collaborations or simply bringing influential people together in the same room.
The stronger the connections are between Bath’s businesses and major organisations, the stronger the wider Bath business community can become.
What does it mean for Calibre 100?
For Calibre 100, it is another major vote of confidence in what we are building.
We have always wanted Calibre 100 to feel different from traditional networking.
It isn’t about collecting as many business cards as possible or delivering a sales pitch to everybody in the room.
It is about creating a carefully considered community of good people, successful businesses and decision-makers who actually want to build relationships with one another.
Having an organisation with the stature of Bath Rugby choose to become a Corporate Member reinforces that vision.
It also helps us continue raising the profile of Calibre 100, attracting interesting businesses and individuals into the network and creating an increasingly valuable community for everybody already involved.
What does this mean for our members?
Ultimately, everything we do at Calibre 100 has to create value for the people who choose to become members.
Bath Rugby joining strengthens the calibre and diversity of the network.
Our members are increasingly finding themselves in a room containing business owners, directors, senior professionals, major local organisations and people with completely different networks and connections of their own.
That creates opportunities.
Sometimes those opportunities will become business.
Sometimes they will become partnerships.
Sometimes they will simply become an introduction to somebody you would otherwise never have met.
And sometimes a conversation over a drink at one of our events can open a completely unexpected door several months later.
That is exactly the type of networking Calibre 100 was created to encourage.
And what does it mean for people attending our events?
You do not necessarily need to be a member to start experiencing what Calibre 100 is becoming.
We continue to make a limited number of tickets available for selected events, allowing business owners and professionals to come along, experience the network and meet the people within it.
As the Corporate Membership grows and organisations such as Bath Rugby become part of the community, the quality and diversity of the room continues to grow with it.
For ticket holders, that means the opportunity to attend far more than simply another networking event.
You are entering a room containing people who are actively involved in business across Bath and the surrounding area, alongside some of the organisations helping to define the city itself.
And that is exactly where we want Calibre 100 to sit.
A network built around Bath
Calibre 100 remains proudly Bath-based.
We want to champion the city, champion the businesses within it and help create connections between people who can genuinely help one another.
Welcoming Bath Rugby Ltd as a Corporate Member is therefore an incredibly exciting moment for everyone involved.
It strengthens Calibre 100.
It creates further opportunities for our members.
It makes our events even more interesting for visitors and ticket holders.
And, most importantly, it helps us continue building something that we believe can become an increasingly valuable part of the wider Bath business community.
We are absolutely delighted to welcome Bath Rugby to Calibre 100.
