About us
Welcome to The Business Social - we host friendly and informal networking events for business owners, freelancers, solopreneurs, and SMEs.
We're not about overwhelm, crowds, cliques, or the pressure to rustle up a 60-second pitch and referrals at the drop of a hat.
We're about relaxed networking at your own pace, being part of a friendly and supportive community, and broadening your business social circle and reach.
Check out the following events:
- Networking Brunch - a relaxed business mingle with a delicious brunch
- Solution Session & Networking Event - collaboration, peer support, and lunch
- The Small Biz Xmas Shindig - absolutely not to be missed!
We offer quality over quantity, so the most of our networking events are capped at 25-30 businesses. We're non-membership too, which means new people for you to meet every single time - in fact, we welcome, on average, 60% new people to every event.
Although we're not a paid membership, we require you to register your business with us. This allows you to book tickets to our events, and easily keep track of your connections after an event.
We hope to see you soon :-)
