KEIGHLEY Business Club is going from strength to strength.
Bosses say the organisation, launched little over two months ago, has received strong support.
And a packed programme of activities is planned next year.
The final event of 2016 was a networking evening at the Lord Rodney in Keighley, which followed on from successful gatherings at Keighley College and nearby Café Choux Choux.
Next year's schedule will include four large-scale quarterly meetings, with specialist guest speakers.
The club's latest meeting was also used to reflect on Keighley BID's first year, with successes ranging from the setting-up of the club to an indoor beach at the Airedale Shopping Centre, a new town-centre radio security system, marketing tools at discoverkeighley.co.uk and printed town guides.
BID manager, Paul Howard, said: "We've been bowled over by the support received since we launched the business club.
"Our first event, with guest speaker Will Holman from the Bank of England, was a great way to kick-off proceedings and we've since gone from strength to strength.
"We're excited for 2017 and new opportunities for Keighley businesses to work together and expand across the region."
