Take a Punt or TAP for short - Brings together businesses & organisations, in a relaxed social environment to create connections and build relationships.
For hundreds of years people have done business in a social setting as well as in the boardroom.
But In the last 20 years this has been frowned upon, and replaced by emails, PowerPoint presentations and more recently Zoom/Teams.
The result being; the loss of the personal touch.
TAP is turning back the clock; "Doing business like it used to be done" by Meeting in person, over a drink (maybe some food) so you can mix, mingle and chill out.
We hate the word 'networking', we believe in saying "Relationship Building."
It's a sad fact, that lot's of people have some fantastic ideas, but for whatever reason they don't tick the boxes or the computer says "NO" to any type of funding. With this in mind as the group expands a number of 'founders' will get a chance to 'pitch' the ideas both online and at events.
Members (if they wish) will be able to ‘take a punt’ on the ideas/people & projects that others sometimes won't.
Many company owners forget; when they started out someone took a ‘gamble’ on them. Whether it was with a loan, equity investment or even just helping to open some doors. ‘Pay it forward’ join ‘Take a Punt’.
