Zoco Networking- how it works
Zoco stands for Zoom + Coffee! And is headed up by Nick Blanchard.
Nick says: I run informal online groups. I wouldn't call it networking exactly, though we are a supportive network, but without the formalities, strict structures, rules and constant selling!
We officially launched in August 2020 after a few months of free meetings to support people during lockdown. Whilst the Founder Nick is based in Hampton, South West London, we now have visitors from all over the world visiting us each week, many able to do business completely online so not tied to geographic limitations!
We always encourage our members to set up 1-1 calls with each other outside of the official meetings. Building relationships is critical not only for business success but also for our mental health.
Now we are also starting to run new in-person local groups, so welcome to the Chiswick in-person part of Zoco!

One day we might do a group meditation session, another day an Accountant will give some useful advice at these ridiculous times, another day a Nutritionist will give some basic tips….it's real variety!
Generally, it is small business owners working independently, as well as a few network marketeers, freelancers, and health & wellness consultants (who we need more than ever now right?!) There is a real mix of ages, backgrounds, professions and stages of business.
