Business networking events for directors and business owners

Effective Business Networking

We provide monthly, face-to-face lunchtime networking events, and have done since its launch in 1993. During all this time 0ur aim has remained the same – to provide business owners and directors with an effective and focused environment to do business.

Currently, the opportunity to make new contacts, to collaborate and share knowledge, and the ability to build a support network, is perhaps even more important than before. That is why we continue acting as ‘connectors’ for our members and finding new ways to make their expertise more visible.

“I’ve been a member of the Business Network for over 4 years now and I know of no other network that works so hard for its members.” Roger Porthouse – Latent Capability Ltd

Benefits of Membership

What our members and visitors say...



3 years! Its seems like only yesterday that I was fighting my way through the Cheshire lanes to the launch of a brand new networking group. These days, new networking groups seem to spring up like weeds, but this one WAS different. It ticked all my boxes and I decided to join at that launch meeting. And I'm still there after three years, because it did deliver on those initial expectations, and continues to do so!! Why do I continue to like The Business Network? Three Simple Reasons: 1 - Its a pleasurable experience. Great lunches in nice locations each month. A structured meeting format, but not rigid. Great educational seminars. Meeting decision makers not salesmen as fellow members. Importantly , you feel you are among friends, all willing to help you. 2 - It helps my business. As a digital marketing consultancy, the majority of our clients come through referrals. I have been introduced to a number of new clients by fellow members and met great companies to partner with through the network. 3 - You don't know when you will meet your next client! As host, Karen works hard to attract new people to every meeting. As well as growing the membership, these visitors help to keep the meeetings fresh and dynamic. And hopefully some may need our Internet Marketing services! Happy 3rd Anniversary!
