Business networking with a twist

We know – business networking sometimes gets a bad name.

But from talking to lots of you – local businesspeople, start-ups, freelancers – I know how much you value networking events that help you forge new connections, build relationships and grow your wider network.

Although we spend so much of our lives online, people still love meeting other people.

So – once you’ve got your tickets 😉 – it’s time to put down your phone and dust off your business cards.

We’re here to offer you a fresh take on local networking, with events that blend fun, business, community and a tonne of value.

Who will you meet first?

Looking forward to welcoming you to one of our events very soon.
