Loughborough Business Networking Breakfast for Owners & Professionals
About this Event
Looking for business networking in Loughborough that feels welcoming, purposeful and genuinely worth your time?
Come along as my guest and meet a supportive group of local business owners and professionals who want to build strong relationships, help one another and generate real opportunities through referrals.
This is structured networking rather than a room full of awkward small talk. You’ll have time to meet people, tell the whole group what you do and who you’d like to connect with, hear from other businesses, and enjoy a cooked breakfast.
Members of the group have generated more than £600,000 in referred business over the last 12 months - but just as importantly, it’s a friendly, positive room where visitors are made to feel welcome.
Your first visit is free as my guest. The usual visitor price is £15, including breakfast.
Who is it for?
This is a great fit if you’re a:
- Business owner or director
- Freelancer or consultant
- Sales or business development professional
- Local professional looking to build stronger business relationships
- Someone who believes good networking is about helping others as well as finding opportunities for yourself
You don’t need to be a natural networker. You just need to be open to meeting people, talking about what you do and building genuine business relationships.
What to expect
You won’t just be handed a coffee and left to work the room.
The meeting is structured so that everyone gets involved. You’ll get the opportunity to:
- Meet established local business owners and professionals
- Introduce yourself and your business to the whole room
- Tell people the kinds of clients, contacts or opportunities you’re looking for
- Hear what everyone else does and spot opportunities to help or connect them
- Have useful conversations before and after the main meeting
- Enjoy a cooked breakfast
- Experience the group for yourself with no obligation to join
The atmosphere is professional but friendly. People come to build their businesses, but they also genuinely want to see the people around them succeed.
Your first visit is free
I’d love to invite you along as my guest.
Your first visit is completely free, including breakfast. The normal visitor price is £15.
I’m Euan, founder of Kerf, and you’ll be attending as my personal guest. I’ll be your point of contact beforehand and will make sure you know what to expect when you arrive.
How your visit works
We operate on a one-business-category-per-member basis.
That means if somebody in the group already represents the same core business category as you, I may not be able to invite you to this particular meeting.
It’s one of the things that makes the group work so well - people can build trusted relationships and refer opportunities without competing directly with another member offering the same service.
Because of this, registering through Eventbrite registers your interest rather than automatically confirming your place.
Once you register, I’ll check your business category and contact you personally to confirm your visit.
Please wait for confirmation from me before attending.
Why 6.30am?
Yes, it’s early.
But there’s a reason for it.
By around 8.30am, you can have met a room full of local business people, introduced your business, made new connections, eaten breakfast and still have virtually your entire working day ahead of you.
Once you’ve done it a couple of times, the early start makes a lot more sense.
