Guest speaker
We’re very excited to have Richard, the founder of Life is a Speech sharing his years of experience when it comes to public speaking, speech writing and presentation. These are skills all of us need in the work place so we can’t wait to learn from him.
We’ll also be joined by the wonderfulΒ Lilly from Cracking Good Food who share their cooking skills and love of good food for all communities, fighting for sustainable food security across Greater Manchester.
Speaking slot
Here’s what we’d encourage you to include in your (optional!) speaking slot:
- brief overview of what your business offers
- what you have to offer others / how they can work with you
- anything you need help with in your business at the moment
- top tip: the more specific you can be the better!
We try to keep these networking events relaxed and informal! We take our businesses seriously, but these are spaces to connect with fellow entrepreneurs and find a support network to help our businesses grow.
If that sounds like the right space for you, we look forward to seeing you there!
π 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!
π« We are not able to refund tickets the seven days leading up to the event; but will try to do so prior to this. If you contact us within 48 hours of the event, we will offer you the option to transfer the ticket to another event.
