Let’s Talk Business!
A 1-hour weekly networking meetup designed to connect business decision-makers, current and future business owners, the self-employed, and entrepreneurs. You’ll meet like-minded people, share experiences, gain new ideas and perspectives — and have some fun doing it.
Whether you’re an owner, a manager, working from home, a start-up or scaling up, this is your chance to network, connect, reflect, take action, and get motivated or reinvigorated.

Who Is This For?
Anyone wanting to meet people they might not otherwise meet, talk about how things are going, get new ideas, share wisdom, and drink some coffee.
Whether you’re a hairdresser, antiques dealer, YouTuber, architect, accountant, lawyer, real estate agent, lawn mowing contractor, or just curious about business—this is for you. Talk Business is where ideas turn into action, and acquaintances become real connections.
