The history of Round Table Round Table has its origin in a young unhappy member of Rotary. Louis Marchesi wanted to create an organisation that had many of the same values, but was more adapted to the young profesionals. Many members of Rotary have a past in Round Table and their memories are always full of high spirits, fantastic fellowship, fun, international friendship and understanding.  Round Table started in England in 1927 when the Prince of Wales said at a speech "The young business and professional men of this country must get together round the table, adopt methods that have proved to be so sound in the past, adapt them to the changing needs of the time and, whenever possible, improve them”. The first Round Table was formed in Norwich, England in 1927. The founder, Louis Marchesi, was a young member of Norwich Rotary Club who felt a need existed for a club where the young business men of the town could gather on a regular basis. In a speech in front of Rotarian he stated:    There are things we must do,  there are things we can do and there are things we should do. And pointed out the problem of change, which can only be achieved with young people. He realised, that this kind of change needs a new form of organisation – “Round Table”. At their meetings they could exchange ideas, learn from the experiences of their colleagues and play a collective part in the civic life of Norwich. From a very early stage it was agreed that Round Table would be a non-religious, non-political club and this has continued to this day.
