Hosted by your local Development Manager and the topic of conversation is always open to discussion! Promote your business in 30 seconds, then network with discussion topics in small breakout rooms.

Event details

We would like to invite you to our popular monthly informal networking event. It's a great opportunity to network, meet new people, share and gain advice all in a relaxed setting.

The Yorkshire & Humber networking event will be hosted by your local Development Manager and the topic of conversation is always open to discussion! Support and advice is on hand, as is the opportunity to share your experience and expertise with other small business owners locally.

At this session: 

  • We will open the session by inviting attendees to give their 30 second ‘elevator’ pitch of themselves or their business. Allowing more time to get to know each other in our breakout rooms.
  • Elevators and introductions out of the way we will then break out into our rooms to get to know each other more. As for the topic of discussion, from goal setting, artificial intelligence, customer satisfaction, recruitment or the latest in social media trends – to name a few. Send in your topic ideas ahead of the event - or shall we take a vote?

New to your elevator pitch? – don’t worry, we’ve got you! Read our how to guide. And for regular attendees, what a great opportunity to perfect that pitch each time you attend or test out a new style or marketing tactic.
