What To Expect In The Portishead, Bristol and North Somerset Networking Meetings
9:15am – Our networking meetings kick off with coffee and an informal chat. You’ll be welcomed by Leanne or one of our regular networking guests. You’ll never find yourself without someone to talk to.
9:30am – You’ll be invited to introduce yourself and your business. You have up to 60 seconds to do this. There’s no pressure to fill all the time. Use as much or as little as you like.
10am – Expert insights. We invite experts to talk about a business topic for up to 10 minutes. You’ll learn some great new information. As you settle into our community, you might like to take one of these sessions for yourself. Unlike any other group, this is free of charge to you. It’s a great opportunity to showcase yourself and your business.
10:10am – Speed Networking. A brilliant opportunity to have targeted, short conversations with people in the room. You’ll get to know lots of other business owners in a short time. It’s fun, informal and a powerful way to make new connections.
10:45am – The networking meeting closes. You can carry on your conversations informally after in the bar, if you’d like to. Otherwise we say goodbye and look forward to seeing you next time.
Discover the Story Behind Portishead, Bristol, and North Somerset Networking
In 2021, Leanne Bridges, High Performance Business Coach, noticed a gap in Portishead’s vibrant business scene: the absence of a dedicated networking group.
Recognising the town’s lively business community and its potential for even greater collaboration, Leanne decided to fill this gap.
Her vision was to create an independent networking group tailored to Portishead, Bristol, and North Somerset’s unique needs. This group would foster business connections and growth without the financial barriers often imposed by national networking organisations.
Today, our community thrives, consistently drawing over 25 business owners to each event. Attendees frequently share how much they enjoy the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the valuable connections they make.
We’re eager to extend this invitation to you. Join us and become part of a network where local businesses connect, grow, and succeed together.
We can’t wait to welcome you!
