A (non-cringey) small business networking event for the gallus gals of Glasgow … and beyond!
About this Event

Not another cringey networking event!

We've all been to them, the awkward, uncomfortable, salesy events where you listen to one scripted elevator pitch after another. The MLM/pyramid scheme folks trying to convince you they can help you make 'six figures in just six months!' The corporate board table powerpoint session, complete with a room full of suits, instant coffee and stale croissants.

This is not one of those events.

Small Biz, Big Chat is about building a community of female entrepreneurs.

It's about real, honest business chat, skill sharing, and non cringey networking (no sleazy sales pitches required). We're a friendly group of women wanting to help other female-owned businesses. It's about proper coffee and delicious cake in a relaxed environment.

This is not just another networking event. It's a new community we want YOU to be a part of.


Do you feel lonely running your business by yourself?

Do you want to meet like-minded business owners?

Do you have questions you want to ask other small biz owners?

Do you sometimes just want to have a moan about that overdue invoice?

This is the place for you.


The details:

  • Tickets are £20 / £17.50 for an early bird
  • You'll get a decent cup of coffee (or tea) & delicious sweet treats
  • Two hours of networking & honest chat with likeminded female founders
  • A presentation / upskilling session with a featured guest speaker (details coming soon!)
  • We run these sessions regularly so you can become part of a supportive community
  • The Glad Cafe offer 10% off their menu for people who stay for lunch


About Small Biz, Big Chat:

Meet Rhiannon, Emmelie and Sarah.

We're three small business owners. Rhiannon helps women build and grow stand out businesses with brand and content strategy, brand photography and business mentorship. Emmelie is an illustrator who works with female entrepreneurs to create magical, bold and fun branding for their businesses. Sarah is a florist and writer who creates wedding florals and runs floristry workshops.

Two of us are mothers so we understand the stresses of juggling childcare, running our businesses and coping with mum guilt. We're all at different stages in our businesses and want nothing more than to grow a community of likeminded female business owners.

Follow us on Instagram to keep up to date.
