No, not speed dating – but speed networking for businesses. If you run, own or manage a business then this is a great chance to meet other business owners and find out what other people are up to, bounce ideas and make some contacts.

This is how it works:
People are arranged seated at tables facing each other. A whistle blows and a three-minute networking session begins.
One person begins by talking about who they are; what they do; and what they are looking for. Then it is the other person’s turn to do the same. The conversation can then turn to exploring any potential business opportunities between you.
The whistle blows again when three minutes has passed, one-person remains seated while the other moves one place up the row and a new three-minute meeting begins.
If you are serious about growing your business then this is a must attend event. It is the quickest way to make lots of new business contacts and meet potential clients.
It’s £25. Due to be held at Preston North End’s Deepdale Stadium on Thursday 9th July 2009.
