Movers & Shakers is a corporate networking event held every month in Bangkok and every three months in Pattaya. Friday the 14th of June was the date for the second quarterly Movers & Shakers in Pattaya and the venue again was the Holiday Inn.

The main purpose of the event is to network and expand your business acquaintances, and with over 200 people attending from the business community here in Pattaya it was evident that although many people knew each other, there was also a steady stream of new faces.

M&S assists various charities and on the night they handed over a Mercedes Benz Van to the Hand-to-Hand Foundation in Pattaya. Last month they installed a kid’s playground at the Triamsuksa Foundation School in Chantaburi and as we go to press a sizable check will be handed over to Sister Joan in Bangkok to assist with her many projects.

Also on the night the principal sponsor Kingdom Property handed over a check for 25,000 baht to Nigel Quennell, the president of the Rotary Club Eastern Seaboard.

The event also had two other sponsors, BMW and Trader Magazine and through their sponsorship this will enable Movers & Shakers to source other projects to support in the future.
