Advanced Membership
Corporate
Corporate Membership has attracted British, European and Venezuelan businesses and organisations that trade and invest, or wish to keep up-to-date with developments, in Venezuela. Corporate members benefit from briefings and conferences on Venezuelan business issues presented by experts and officials from both countries. Corporate Members are entitled to attend, either free-of-charge or at a reduced cost, conferences organised by the Society and other entities with which we have reciprocal arrangements. Of particular interest to corporate members is the Society’s partnership arrangements with the UK Trade & Investment’s Oil & Gas Team for the Americas and the Caracas based British Venezuelan Chamber of Commerce.
Patrons
By joining the Society as Patrons, British and Venezuelan organisations receive preferential access to local and visiting officials, experts and business executives speaking at meetings organised by the Society. Patrons are also given preference at social events where numbers are limited. The Society will negotiate a package of benefits specifically tailored to a Patron's interest. If convenient, Patrons may nominate a member to the Executive Committee of the Society and have their organisation's website linked to the Society's own website.
