In preparation for the London 2012 Olympics, the East Greenwich Business Association had commissioned a re-design of it's website. The website had been in construction for a number of months and was due to be completed in the spring of 2012. Lorraine was approached by EGBA to organise a launch party to celebrate the website going live in advance of the 2012 London Marathon.

EGBA is a not-for-profit organisation that supports and showcases it’s member businesses, all of whom are based or have operations within East Greenwich.  To this end it was important that the launch event should showcase as many local suppliers as possible and so flowers, canapes, cakes and wine were all sourced from East Greenwich businesses.

The event took place at Greenwich Communication Centre on 18th April from 6pm.  Cllr Denise Hyland, the Royal Greenwich Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Enterprise & Skills delivered a welcome address at 6.30pm and 30 guests from the local business community attended together with representatives from the local media. The evening was a huge success which also resulted in a number of editorial pieces be written by the local press that were in attendance.

Testimonial:
"I set up my home-made dog treat business earlier this year so increasing my exposure through online marketing is extremely important.  The new EGBA website is great and Lorraine did a fabulous job of arranging such an excellent event for the website launch. The evening was great fun and I met lots of local business people that I hadn't met before as well as a few dog owners".
