We’re a vibrant community of over 100 business owners, directors, entrepreneurs and academics from all backgrounds and disciplines. With a focus on peer support, knowledge and learning, we aim to provide a fertile environment for local businesses to thrive.
We offer lively and dynamic events throughout the year that help our members feel inspired and take on new ideas. If you’re forward-thinking, open-minded and keen to develop yourself and your organisation, you’ll fit in. If you’re looking to find new business opportunities and establish valuable professional relationships, we can help. If you’re interested in the cross-pollination of ideas, lifting the lid on ambition, or profitable links between businesses and academia, you’ve come to the right place.
We meet every month to hear outstanding entrepreneurial speakers and to network in a relaxed social environment. We also support and collaborate with other like-minded business groups on special events. We are a not-for-profit organisation funded through membership fees, training, and sponsorship from UEA and City College Norwich.
