| Individual Membership |  Print |
The BCCD began with the members of the British Business Lunch Club (BBLC), who voted overwhelmingly for the club to become the British Chamber of Commerce in Denmark at their historical Extraordinary General Meeting in May 2004. These members became the first Individual Members of the Chamber. Therefore Individual Membership carries on and evolves the attributes of membership characteristic of the BBLC for those members who joined the Chamber during the first year.
Among the benefits of Individual Members are:
- Membership of an organisation with a high profile and visibility in the Danish business world;
- Increasing opportunities for bilateral and corporate networking at Chamber events;
- A programme of monthly lunches;
- An increasing range of social activities, events and special offers, and;
- Access to BCCD website, newsletters and other physical and electronic publications.
Lunches were always the raison d’étre of the BBLC and have continued for Individual Members of the Chamber. They are usually on the third Friday of the month from September to May inclusive, except December. There is a speaker at each lunch, followed by an open Q&A session and discussion. Additionally, there is a series of 'on the way home' events hosted by members covering hot business topics.
A range of social activities has evolved around the lunches, including the Golf Tournament, film premiéres, and theatre nights.
A newsletter is e-mailed bi-monthly to Individual Members. This serves as a reminder for people about forthcoming events and activities and allows the Board to keep members informed about their intentions for the Chamber. Individual members also have access to the extranet, containing contact details of fellow chamber members. |
