Description
⏰ Thursday 27th February, 7.30pm – Wine & Wallop (on Lapwing Lane, right across from the West Didsbury tram stop.)
🚀 This networking event is for solopreneurs in Manchester! Being self employed is always a challenge, but being a solopreneur can add an extra dimension to that. This event is designed to offer both inspiring stories and to help you find a network of support.
🎤 Our guest speaker is John Blakeman, an enormously talented local entrepreneur and interior designer who specialises in leisure and hospitality. He’ll be sharing some of his challenges and successes when it comes to being a solopreneur in this competitive & creative field.
📣 After our speaker, there will be the chance for you to tell people what you do, anything you’re looking for and what you can offer. This is entirely optional but helps with the free flow networking afterwards, as you can make a bee line for anyone you’d particularly like to chat with.
👋 This event also gives you access to our ‘Manchester Business Network’ group on Facebook AND on LinkedIn so that you can connect and collaborate with fellow entrepreneurs. Please do feel free to post and promote what you’re doing in these groups at any time – we’re all about shining a spotlight on local businesses!
