Connects Network Meeting - Stoke-on-Trent - November 2026
Open and informal local business networking in Staffordshire
Connects is a not-for-profit, relaxed and informal networking opportunity facilitated by number of local business owners in the Staffordshire area who enjoy bringing people together and promoting the many positive aspects of local community.
Each month, we carefully choose our guest speakers who have success stories, interesting projects and events to share that are happening on our doorstep.
Whether you're a local entrepreneur, business owner or organisation, all are welcome to our network meeting, and there are no fees to attend, so be sure to bring your business cards and share the event with others who might be interested.
Guest Speakers
Our guest speakers for this session are author Melanie Seiver and artist Christine Warrington, who have written childrens' books based around the character of Polly Pin, a curious pin who lives in the sewing room
with all of the other sewing tools.
