A south coast property finance specialist held a networking event in the heart of Southampton to thank clients, suppliers and community partners for sharing in its journey of growth over the past 43 years.
Around 90 property professionals including developers, valuers and surveyors were joined by charity representatives at MSP Capital’s ‘Summer Social’.
The afternoon celebration took place at The Bugle House events venue, a landmark townhouse that overlooks the Royal Pier and dates back to 1846 as the former home of the Royal Southern Yacht Club.
Hosted by entrepreneur, business coach and entertainer Paul Kinvig, the socialfeatured live music from Chichester-based guitarist Freddie Edwards who has toured with Status Quo and supported acts such as indie rockers Maximo Park and singer songwriter Ella Eyre.
The event capped the first year of MSP Capital’s ESG strategy, Foundations for Better Futures, through which the firm aims to demonstrate a commitment to ‘giving back’ to its team, the environment, the local community and the property industry.
For every guest at the social, MSP Capital has planted a tree in the south of England in partnership with tree donation company Treeapp.
MSP Capital’s Joint Managing Director Paul Miracca said:
“Since 1981, we’ve grown to become a leading bridging and development lender.
“Our summer social was an ideal face-to-face opportunity to celebrate and nurture our strong relationships across the property industry and the charities and community causes we support.
“It was a pleasure and privilege to lay on such top-quality music and entertainment for our guests and have so much fun together.”
Attendee Vincent Oddie, Director of Trowbridge homebuilder IngenicDevelopments, said:
“Thanks to MSP Capital for a wonderful summer event. It was great to meet diverse people across our industry in terms of speciality, experience and more. It really helps.”
Catering for the event featured luxurious canapés prepared and served by the team at Molecular Magic Creative Catering, run by Bournemouth-based Head Chef Maciek Kijewski.
“Working with MSP Capital on their summer social has been a lovely experience,”
said Elli Mae, Molecular Magic’s Creative Events and Business Coordinator.
“From early meetings exploring concepts through to the end it has been a pleasure to work with such a professional and creative team.
“We have great respect for businesses implementing sustainable processes into their company culture and applaud MSP Capital for doing it with such passion.
“We look forward to continuing our relationship in the future and putting on some further unforgettable events together.”
To reflect the ESG message about sustainability, guests mingled and chatted around a large tree that took pride of place in the centre of the room.
