New networking in Rutland

If you haven’t heard about it already, this is the networking to watch in Rutland! #FSBConnect Business Lunch is run by a team of local small business owners who are kindly volunteering to organise and host these meetings- so please show your support by coming along. 

They are informal, friendly meetings and an absolute bargain at only ￡5 for a light lunch and everyone is welcome- you don't need to be an FSB member to attend. Suzy, who runs the café at The King Centre, provided us with a fab lunch. (see photo)

If you're looking to meet a really diverse and welcoming group of SMEs then book your ticket and come to the new King Centre, Oakham next week on Tuesday 8 May from 12pm. Supported by Rutland County Council, so use it to check in with what business support and grants are available too!

Last month we explored avenues for streamlining our businesses and becoming more efficient and everyone came away with a little more knowledge to help them on their route to success.

This month Emma Robson of Rutland wine merchant Bat and Bottle will be telling us about 'How we made it to Downing Street' and the opportunities to be had from PR, so book here.

If you'd like to be a speaker or get involved in organising this or another local FSB event, then please get in touch with me on [email protected]
