That’s a wrap on our 2023 South East Wales Networking at Space2B!

Local News 14 Nov 2023

Last week we held our regular South East Wales In-Person Business Networking at Space2B @ The Maltings and once again it was a resounding success!

This event marked the last of these sessions for the year, capping off 2023 on a high note. Both FSB members and non-members attended, enjoying a feast of breakfast rolls with tea & coffee to start their day, all whilst expanding their professional networks.

The highlight of the event was of course Lee-Ann Bonny's engaging presentation on "Using Your Voice" to enhance confidence and clarity in business settings. Lee-Ann, from The Bonny Academy, has over two decades of experience as a vocal coach and she shared invaluable insights and practical tips on leveraging vocal presence, specifically within networking environments.

It is safe to say that the success of the event was found within the newly acquired skills acquired from Lee-Ann for all the attendees, as well as the new business connections also made through the morning.

Rob Basini, Development Manager for FSB in South & Mid Wales, said “This was a great networking event with a fantastic session from our guest speaker Lee-Ann. It was a fitting end to what’s been a fantastic year of networking across the area.

It’s been great to hear small businesses tell us how both our virtual networking sessions and in person events have given them opportunities to create productive links both within Wales and across the UK. We are really looking forward to continuing our activity into 2024, and to playing our part in providing networking opportunities for small businesses across South, West, and Mid Wales."

As the year comes to a close, this event served as a fitting conclusion to the networking sessions of 2023. The meetings have provided a platform through the year for fruitful discussions, the exchange of knowledge and some very engaging presentations, all making each event a unique and rewarding experience.

The success of the events this year ensure that the sessions will resume with full force next year and, looking ahead to 2024, we are excited to build upon the success of this year. The first session of 2024 will take place on Thursday 25 January, 9.15am – 11am, and tickets are on sale now, click here to book now and kick off your networking with us in the New Year!
