About this Event
United in Business — Intercultural Networking Event in Bournemouth (Second Edition) — designed so everyone is seen and heard.
About the Event
United in Business is an international, in-person networking format created for people who work locally but think globally — no matter the accent.
This is an intercultural event, bringing together business owners and professionals from different countries, cultures and industries.
At the same time, it is intentionally intimate — neither corporate nor purely social, and never crowded or transactional.
A Boutique-Style Networking Experience
United in Business is intentionally boutique in size — a warm, high-quality space designed for genuine conversations rather than corporate crowds.
The reason is simple: meaningful connections don’t happen in large, noisy rooms where no one is truly seen or heard.
This networking evening is carefully designed for a small group, allowing real conversations to happen.
Everyone has space to introduce themselves, share perspectives, and take part in guided discussions that go beyond surface-level networking.
What to Expect
1. Warm Welcome & Opening
An introduction to the evening and its purpose — connecting people beyond borders.
2. Informal Networking
Enjoy your first tea, coffee or soft drink on us.
A relaxed space to ease in, start conversations naturally, and meet global-minded people.
3. Guest Speaker – To Be Confirmed
An inspiring insight from a business professional sharing experience, strategy, or story that resonates with today’s global business landscape.
4. Formal Networking Session
A structured, supportive round where everyone is seen and heard.
Each participant has dedicated time to introduce themselves and their business.
5. Focus Group Discussions
Three short, dynamic discussion rounds built around thought-provoking questions.
A powerful way to exchange ideas, learn from different perspectives, and expand your thinking.
6. Final Informal Networking
Continue conversations freely in the beautiful setting of the hotel bar.
Drinks available for purchase.
