What attendees and organisers say

“I didn’t just leave with another networking talk; I left with a practical framework for making the most of every relationship.

Thank you once again for sharing your knowledge and experience. It was truly inspiring.

Elijah Olanrewaju
University of Wolverhampton SPEED Entrepreneur Experience Week

“During the workshop, I felt enlightened. I had lots of lightbulb moments and realised I’d been putting too much pressure on myself.

Now I feel much more at ease, even when there are people I don’t know.”

Vikki Brooks
Founder, Values-Led VAs

“As a team, we’ve all taken something from it.

It made me think differently and I’m putting the advice into practice at events now.”

Jody Fox
Business Growth Officer
