About this Event
Are you a new business, exploring ideas or starting to build? Would you like to make connections, inspire ideas, learn from peers, access support? You could be new to the UK, from a minoritised community and lacking a business network to get going?
Whatever your start-up circumstances, this is a unique take on networking aimed at those in the early stages of a business idea. It will be an informal gathering within the local business community which combines the chance to meet and chat with people in a similar position, share stories and learn as well as offering the opportunity to meet support providers and access local business support.
The event is free and organised through partners: West of England Combined Authority and The Business and Intellectual Property Centre.
