DNA

The "swirl" in the logo is a nod to the routes of The Business Community being in Northamptonshire, as was the co-proposer of the double helix structure of the DNA molecule: Francis Crick.

Born in Weston Favell, Francis worked with American molecular biologist James Watson proposing their findings in an academic paper in 1953. Together with Watson and Maurice Wilkins, he was jointly awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material".

<p>The Business Community has been <strong>extremely helpful to my business</strong>. The <strong>meetings are well run</strong> - they have<strong> a well-defined structure</strong>, but have a <strong>good mix of formality and informality</strong>. I enjoy meeting other members, have made some <strong>good connections</strong>, got <strong>great business advice</strong> from Paul and the wider group and, last but not least, <strong>gained work whose value is several times the cost of membership</strong>.</p>

<p>BusComm offers <strong>structured yet relaxed and friendly networking</strong>, but it's so much more than that; the <strong>support of fellow businesses is fantastic</strong>, through good times they are there to cheer you on and during the more difficult times they are there to offer invaluable practical support. This f<strong>antastic community of business owners is second to none</strong>. I cannot recommend Paul Green and the Business Community highly enough.</p>
