Who attends

There is a diverse range of businesses that attend, pretty much covering all sectors.

The target audience for the #BusComm business networking meetings are small business owners who are looking to grow their business; however all businesses are welcome to attend.

Typically there will be a core of regular members who come along and usually a couple of visitors.

If there are particular businesses that you would be interested in meeting, then get in touch and let the group leader know who you are ideally looking to be connected with.

Should you become a member, then you will get attendee lists sent to you the day before the meeting.

You can also book future 1-2-1s with other attendees at your first meeting.

Here is a quick video with the breakdown of the community from a recent member survey:

So how can you make the most out of these networking groups?

<p>I really enjoy the BusComm meetings, the format works quite well and the <strong>atmosphere is very friendly</strong>, most importantly it is <strong>not too scary</strong> even when you are new to networking. I have got enough support from BusComm members, number of clients and <strong>valuable business contacts</strong>.</p>

<p>A <strong>great group of people</strong>. Meetings are <strong>well structured</strong> and the <strong>format is helpful</strong> to meeting a number of people. The additional features of being a member with having access to all members and <strong>lots of other features too numerous to mention</strong>.</p>

<p>This is a small enough networking group to feel like a community but big enough to have a <strong>good variety of different business types and sizes</strong>. Love the meeting structure (with a difference) which gives the chance to discuss as a whole group and <strong>share ideas</strong> rather than just speaking to the people sitting next to you. Can't recommend it more highly to anyone running their own business.</p>
