Networking and other events

We like to get out and about meeting new people at networking and other events – however we are enjoying a hybrid approach of online and in-person meetings – and are connected to several local networking organisations.

Whilst we don’t run an event ourselves, other than hosting FSB West Yorkshire online networking, we love to share details about the events we are attending.

Merewyn Sayers, owner of Sayers Solutions, is one of the West Yorkshire Area Leaders of the Federation of Small Businesses, created the HD8 Network – a local platform for communication – and is a keen attendee of networking and other business events.

The range of networking events available to the business community is very broad and varied, with none being the same experience twice.

There are weekly meetings, monthly and quarterly meetups, structured, unstructured, knowledge sharing, direct selling exhibitions.

There are so many to choose from.

However, since the impact of the pandemic, many have moved and stayed online using Zoom or similar technology.

But in-person meetings are reappearing and many attendees are keen to get back in the room, rather than meeting via a screen.

Events are always better with familiar faces, so if you fancy coming along some time and catching up, let us know and we will invite you to join us.
