Founders Dinner
A splendid dinner last night. From my point of view, one of the best, with the combination of venue, fine food and wine, and a select but eclectic attendance. I had some very enjoyable and useful conversations.

Networkers Forum
'Thank you for a very inspiring and stimulating Networkers day this week. I learnt an enormous amount and really enjoyed meeting the mix of people - both Newcomers and Alumni. Thanks also for your input and ideas - lots of food for thought.'

Cambridge Network In The City
Just a slightly belated note to say thank you for inviting me to the very enjoyable dinner last Tuesday.
This is the second of these events I have attended, and on both occasions I have found it a rewarding experience, to meet old friends and make new acquaintances, as well as listen to some entertaining and informative speakers.

'This is a bit of a personal whinge, but if it is part of a wider trend it has implications for Cambridge Network as a whole. I received an email copy of the Cambridge Network newsletter this morning. This is the first contact I have had from Cambridge Network since I joined on 29 June last year.
I'm a great fan of Cambridge Network, but I don't think I'll be recommending anyone else to join!'
RE 15/02/06
Thank you for another great event last night. Also, I thought you might like to know that being a member of the Cambridge Network has had a positive effect on my business. My web counter analysis demonstrates that I regularly get a number of hits to my website via Cambridge Network online. I also get a steady stream of enquiries because of the increased exposure, resulting in (repeat) business from various members of the community. This has turned out to be an extremely cost effective - and pleasant! - way for a small business such as myself to promote its services.'
KR 04/10/06
'Thanks for your contribution last evening and at such short notice too ! We've had some good feedback from the 'other halves' and we really appreciate what you were able to do for us. This is another example of how pleased we are with the help and support we get from you personally and from Cambridge Network in general.'
AP 05/10/06
'Many thanks for an excellent evening on Tuesday. The dinner, the company, the organisation, the venue - all faultless.
I very much appreciated the invitation.'
DH 20/10/06
'The whole evening was most informative - and could be used to full advantage, to demonstrate the contribution from the Cambridge scene!!'

Corporate Gateway
Earlier this year you passed our contact details to CVB of P. Research Labs. I am pleased to say we have now been awarded an initial 10-day market research and regulatory strategy pilot study contract. JP 18/04/08
Thank you so much for Monday nights event it was truly stimulating and really served to engage our cultural offer within the wider business and inventing community – I was raving about the flexible screen that will have media content downloaded onto it from anywhere in the world – the news on the go and beyond. HR 24/04/08
Many thanks for the generous invitation to the Cambridge Gateway Gala dinner on Tuesday evening. The food, wine and service were excellent as was the company. It was thoroughly enjoyable and productive. I enjoyed meeting the other technology experts from a wide variety of backgrounds and I hope to further the contacts established. IS 25/04/08
Thank you very much for the excellently organised event and the good time I had in Cambridge. I am very impressed about the entrepreneurial spirit of the people I met in Cambridge. JP 29/04/08
Thanks for organising a very interesting presentation. It was of great value and really got us thinking afterwards. CV 17/03/08
We get invited to many such events, but given our tight technical focus, most events do not bring serious opportunities to our attention. However, Cambridge has an exceptional reputation RM 03/09/08
Cleantech Special Interest Group
Many thanks for the breakfast – it was really interesting. As my first event, I enjoyed it and can see the real value in the Cambridge Network. SS 20/06/08
Many thanks for organising an excellent evening for the clean tech interest group last week. EG 23/11/08
India Open Meeting
Thanks. It was a great, high energy event. Very useful for me. Thanks for all your efforts, BH 30/6/08
I very much enjoyed the India session and thought your panel were excellent. PW 30/6/08
Cafe Networking
Thank you very much for your hospitality last night: it was obviously a very successful event and even in the short time I was there I had the opportunity of meeting some very interesting people. DB 16/12/08
Many thanks for your email, and for your warm welcome yesterday evening. It was a hugely successful event in all sorts of ways, and we are very grateful to have had the opportunity to address such a great number of people. Needless to say, we shall be pleased to arrange representation of TOU in the East of England at the next event planned for 24 February! We look forward to receiving further details nearer to the date. MK 17/12/08
Thanks you so much for the opportunity to speak. I agree that its a great venue for a productive informal gathering. RT 17/12/08
Website
Pay invoice on-line worked fine for me. No problem at all - quick, easy and just the way I'd hope. DB 11/07/08
I very much like the added information I am now seeing in the Newsletter, when I rest over an active link. As you promised, it makes clear whether the link is worth clicking on or not. Thank you! LvS 13/11/08
I have decided not to renew my membership of the Cambridge Network.Primarily, this decision was made because I don't think the website has really done anything to improve the functionality or services available to members since its launch. In an age of news story ranking like Digg embedded audio/video and the various other web 2.0 services dedicated to news, I think it's extremely disappointing that a site such as Cambnet, representing a high-tech area such as Cambridge has been so slow to adopt the internet. Even the RSS feeds don't work properly. There are several features which if you implemented, would vastly improve the overall experience of Cambnet and ultimately make more people use it more often.Please take this as positive feedback.NM 01/04/08
Congratulations - One of the easiest websites - but what else should I expect from Cambridge! WC 1/12/08
I posted 3 jobs on the website, our first experience with the network, and frankly it surpassed all our expectations. All three jobs have now been filled with excellent people, all of whom applied through the network. Apologies for any confusion caused and once again thank you on behalf of myself and colleagues for a sterling and indispensable service. HB 10/12/08

Keep up the good work, Cambridge Network is a very important marketing tool for us RS 01/03/08
Peter, had a stunning response from just those few contacts. Most appreciated. PK 12/03/08
Sincere thanks for your out of hours help and support. IB 26/03/08
Not sure how much feedback you get but thought I would offer some. 2 people responded to our CN news article and both are now volunteering with us. It works! JD 23/04/08
I would recommend the Cambridge Network to any organization looking for high levels of positive Media exposure! MS 26/06/08
Thank you for an enjoyable and productive evening. We gained a useful introduction from the session. DH 30/07/08
Almost 12 months ago I contacted you to assist me with loading my CV onto the Cambridge Network. Cambridge Network was a great success as T contacted me where I am now working as Sales Director. RL 9/09/08
Thank you so much for your introduction to IB. I do not know what will happen between the two of us in the future as we have known each other for too short an amount of time. But we had a very productive meeting today, he is interested by the company's future prospects and is kindly helping me draft the business plan. MO 12/09/08
Yesterday I sat next to DC, exactly what I had wanted to do, and he listened intently about my start-up. He invited me to present to the Cambridge Angel's informal session. And then of course you introduced me - personally! - to all the folks at N, and I enjoyed meeting everyone else as well. It was such a pleasant evening and so tremendously useful. MO 7/10/08
I did not have the chance to thank you on the day itself for your efforts in making our opening day a success, thus I would like to do this via this mail. I was very glad to have you as our opening speaker, and your choice of presentation focus to welcome us back to Cambridge with reference to the history has worked extremely well. BT 10/11/08
