I’ve never been to a networking event – what happens?

Networking is the no.1 proven way to generate new business. Just buy a ticket, turn up and chat over drinks in a friendly setting. About 15% of our guests are first-timers. Our team are always on hand to help. Over the past decade our events have made millions of pounds worth of deals for attendees.

What’s the dress code?

Whatever you feel comfortable in. Most people wear business attire or business casual. We would recommend bringing lots of business cards or using the LinkedIn app’s QR code facility to easily connect with others at the event.

Who goes to your events?

Numbers vary but generally 40-70 people (depends on weather, holidays, sporting events etc.) This is a “networking” event NOT a “selling” event – the idea is to build your network, those you meet may have clients that could use your services and vice-versa. See above for sample sectors that attend.
