Networking is today a key activity for anyone in business as either an employee or as a business owner, it is a way to affect your personal growth, business development and your network of trusted sources. Regrettably, all too frequently networking is misused and misunderstood, often it is considered a way to distribute business cards, when actually a successful network is one of building trusted relationships and taking action. A good personal or business network can not only help you with business and contacts but it is also a great way to get energised, exchange ideas and build motivation.
Doors open for registration at 19:00 and the event starts at 19:30. Parking is available
