FREE "MEET MY COLLEAGUES" WORKSHOP 

We're frequently asked these questions: -

• How can Collaborative Networking help me and how is it different from all the other networking I have ever seen?
• How can I keep in touch and up to date with people I have have met at Network Nights?
• How can I get in touch with other network members I've never even met? ​

To answer these questions we've created a
FREE "MEET MY COLLEAGUES" WORKSHOP

• The workshop will run from 5.00 pm to 6.30 pm with time afterwards for informal networking at the bar.
• There will be a limited number of delegates so that people can get to meet each other.
