Experience Oxfordshire host summer networking event at The Macdonald Bear Hotel
On 16th July Experience Oxfordshire welcomed Partners to their summer networking event at the Macdonald Bear Hotel, Woodstock
Showcasing the venue to Experience Oxfordshire Partners, the team at the Bear welcomed guests to the Churchill Lounge, before a guided tour of the majestic 13th century coaching inn’s bedrooms and meeting facilities, all followed by a luxurious afternoon tea in the award-winning restaurant, at the heart of the building.
Herman Muller, General Manager for the Macdonald Bear Hotel commented:
“We were thrilled to welcome Experience Oxfordshire and their Partners to the Macdonald Bear Hotel in Woodstock. We want to build stronger relationships with both the local market and business community in Oxfordshire, networking events such as this one are an ideal opportunity to do just that. It was fantastic to be able to showcase the Macdonald Bear and its facilities to these important partners from across the county.”
Hayley Beer-Gamage, Chief Executive of Experience Oxfordshire said:
“We were delighted to welcome so many of our Partners to our summer networking event this week and it was a pleasure to work with the dedicated team at the Macdonald Bear Hotel. Events like these are one of the many benefits of being a Partner of Experience Oxfordshire and it was great to catch up with so many of them that continue to support the organisation. It was also an opportunity to welcome several new Partners and make valuable introductions and business connections. We were also delighted to showcase our newly launched Ambition Statement and let partners know about the exciting projects and opportunities that are coming up that they can get involved with.”
The summer networking event is part of a series of events and seminars that Experience Oxfordshire hosts throughout the year and is an exclusive benefit of being an Experience Oxfordshire Partner.
