NETWORKINGWe offer the networking cafe, speed networking, business connections and open
networking with our exhibitors. Networking is extremely important to get your business
known. Whether it is during our fast-paced speed networking sessions, where the aim
of the game is to network with as many people possible in a quick fire session.
NETWORKING CAFEHow many times have you sat in a queue or been on a train, tube or bus and everyone
is facing forward. Have you ever wondered what that person in a suit does or if you
have anything in common. Well now's your chance to really engage with people
standing in a queue for a coffee. The network cafe is place where you can meet
socialise and get engaged with people that you wouldn't normally have met or had the
chance to speak to. This area is facilitated by professional networkers who can help you
make the right connections face to face, because let's face it you never know who you
are going to meet or where the next opportunity is going to come from. There will also
be a meeting area where you will have the chance to sit and chat. Social media is
becoming huge but face to face time will always take priority.
SPEED NETWORKINGThe fast a furious way of networking, this tradition within the show has helped
thousands of businesses to grow. With the famous Sergeant Major making
appearances across the country to help facilitate thousands of sessions, in not only The
Business Growth Show, but other events as well. You will be given 60 seconds to make
the most out of your brief encounter.
The Sergeant Majors rules
Keep the waffle to a minimum, be concise and move when asked to. No one likes a
slow-coach.
