Natural Netwalking
Netwalking is an active alternative to traditional indoor business networking. Joining one of the ‘netwalks’ will get you out in the open air, away from your office and give you the opportunity to meet like-minded business contacts. No need to eat a big breakfast and worry about delivering your one-minute introduction. Instead, you will find yourself having relaxed natural chats about your business and theirs, whilst walking in the countryside. Members and non-members welcome. Please see Netwalking.
Networking Women
Networking Women is a collaborative organisation offering networking opportunities for women running small businesses in the Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire area. The West Oxfordshire branch meets on the fourth Friday of each month at The Evenlode in Eynsham. Attendees range from new start-up businesses looking for support and guidance to well established businesses. Please visit Networking Women.
