Givers Gain Structured Networking for Small Business, Coops + Freelancers

Have you ever been introduced to someone who completely changed the trajectory of your business? Perhaps they were the key to securing a new contract or owned the ideal location for your business. This structured networking session is designed to make these transformative connections through ethical word-of-mouth referrals.

Why Attend: The event is not just another network meeting, it's a facilitated experience aimed at maximising the potential for productive business introductions. Using a tried & tested method, we will help you connect with individuals who can propel your business forward.

Event Highlights:

• The pitch: prepare for the session by thinking about the profile of a person who could give you the new business you need - next month, next year, or game-changing.
• Referrals round: think about everyone in your own network of suppliers, customers or friends who buys goods and services
• Communal tea and biscuits: Exchange contacts and discuss collaborations.
