A new networking event bringing together professionals in the first five years of their careers from across the region has landed in Shropshire.
Shropshire Rising Professionals has been launched by Shrewsbury legal firm Aaron & Partners, with an inaugural event taking place at the Riverbank Bar & Grill on Victoria Quay.
The event offers the chance for up-and-coming professionals from sectors including law, accountancy, HR and property development to make valuable connections in a relaxed setting.
Attendees at the first session included professionals from businesses such as Azets, Base Architects and Brewin Dolphin. 
Natalie Antenbring, a Dispute Resolution solicitor at Aaron & Partners, said: “The past few years have raised various challenges for people, but it’s so important to have a good network of trusted people you can call upon.
“Here in Shropshire, there’s a fantastic array of talented rising professionals. This event was all about bringing them together to share ideas, network and build relationships outside of work. We’ve received some superb feedback from our first event. Attendees described it as being fun, relaxed and productive with a great venue, and that’s exactly what we were hoping to achieve.
“Some brilliant connections were made, with attendees meeting other like-minded professionals they may never have otherwise come across.”
