About this Event
Meet local businesses, have proper conversations and enjoy a room with a bit of energy to it.
Powered Up Business Networking is an "out of hours" event that strips away the usual networking formalities. No long pitches, no bland tea and coffee. You get real conversations with real people and plenty of laughs along the way.
The best business connections come from the people you enjoy spending time with. The ones you trust. PUBNetworking is where you find them.
We keep the structure light, the atmosphere relaxed and the focus on people. You can learn from others, pick up ideas and enjoy the night with no strings attached.
Just bring yourself, your e-ticket and a good smile.
What you can expect...
Meet great people
We attract start-ups, experienced business owners and everything in between. With no memberships or contracts, everyone attends because they want to be there. That makes conversations easier and more genuine.
Build real relationships
People buy from people. When the pressure is off, connections grow naturally. You get to know others properly and enjoy the process.
Learn without the pitch
Every event gives you something useful to take away. Our speakers share value, not disguised sales presentations. If you learn something that helps your business, we’ve done our job.
Have fun
A relaxed environment, a drink in your hand and a few questionable jokes. PUBNetworking is built around people first, business second.
This month’s speaker
Our speaker for this meeting is the awesome Steph Anslow. Her talk is called "From Zero GCSEs to Building My Own House (and Why Being an Interior Designer Isn’t Just Picking Cushions)"
Steph shares how she went from a standing start to building her own home, and what that journey taught her along the way.
This is a straight look at what interior design involves, how spaces really come together and why it is a lot more than making things look good.
