Pathway2Grow hold Coffee & Natter afternoons in various locations including Birmingham, Burton, London, Walsall, Telford, Wolverhampton & Bromsgrove as part of our mission to build a business community that can network, learn and grow together. This free event gives you the opportunity to meet professionals from a range of industries as well as listen to our high quality keynote speakers.

There will be tea, coffee, water, samosas and a range of other foods all provided for free during the afternoon to give you plenty of energy for networking.

1.30pm to 3pm is the formal part with open networking before and afterwards to give those who need to leave for the school run or other meetings the opportunity to take part.

The Agenda for Thursday 12th July 2018 will be:

13:00 - 13:30 Registration & Networking

13:30 - 14:00 Welcome & Delegate Introductions

14:00 - 14:40 Keynote Speech - Owen Conti "Making IT Work For Your Business"

14:40 - 15:00 Business Clinic

15:00 - 16:00 Open Networking, Photos and Video Testimonials

Guest Speaker - Owen Conti "Making IT Work For Your Business"

Throughout varied roles in the IT industry, ranging from Fraud Detection with banks and building societies, through to setting up and maintaining redundant multi-site links, Owen from Code 56 has seen first-hand the impact IT can have on businesses of all sizes. As technology marches on at an incredible pace, IT has the power be both good and bad for businesses; Owen will be discussing how including IT (or any other "back office" department) early on in the decision making process can have an overwhelmingly positive impact for a business of any size, and how to avoid some of the common pitfalls and roadblocks.

About The Event

The Pathway2Grow "Coffee and Natter" business networking event is relaxed networking centred around a guest speaker, which will involve a presentation on a topic of interest to anyone seeking self-development and personal and business growth. Attendees are given the option of introducing themselves with a one minute intro to the rest of the floor; however, there is absolutely no pressure to do so!

We believe we provide a no pressure environment. If you wish to network that's fine, but if not then come and listen to the speakers. We believe we are an event for non-traditional networkers as well as experienced networkers.

We believe in building an online and an offline community and there are plenty of ongoing opportunities to converse and share with a WhatsApp group (send a message to 07825 751 635 to join), Facebook Group and also on LinkedIn as well as our monthly meets.
