In February 2007 HIE Moray ran the first Speed Networking event for RAF leavers and local employers. Speed Networking gives people a structured environment in which they can talk to people they wouldn't otherwise have come into contact with. The event in February attracted 12 Moray employers and 40 RAF leavers and was an opportunity for RAF leavers to sell their skills to businesses and an opportunity for employers to learn more about the skills that RAF leaver have. Several jobs were exchanged as a result of the event. Employers in attendance in February were FR Aviation Ltd, Highland Airways, AJ Engineering and Construction Services Ltd and Maynes Coaches to name a few.
