This month's 1st Friday Breakfast meeting is on 4th September at the Innovation Centre in Torquay.

Welcome back!  We hope you had a great summer and are looking forward to meeting up with everyone again after the break.

The hot topic for this month’s 1st Friday is ‘Business Excellence’. We are launching the 3rd South Devon Business Excellence Awards and our
guest speaker is Hugh Doxatt-Pratt from Alpha Financial Consultants, winners of the Most Innovative Company at last year’s awards.

Alpha were deemed to be worthy winners because they were able to demonstrate that innovation was one of the main drivers of their organisation. They were also commended for their application and the manner in which they answered the entry criteria.

Come and find out how Alpha have put Innovation at the heart of their business and also the benefits of entering award programmes in general.

The agenda for 4 September at Torquay is:

8.30    Arrive, refreshments and networking
9.10    Welcome,  Adrian Sheen
9.15    Business Excellence, Hugh Doxatt-Pratt
9.25    The South Devon Business Excellence Awards, 2009
