Business Biscotti Networking Clubs are just that – a platform to build connections in an informal friendly environment.

Each Networking Club has a “bit” of structure around "STOPs the Clock" for about 15-20 minutes per event - but not much. This is your opportunity to do a short "pitch" about your business. ( approximately 30 - 45 seconds depending on how many people attend)

We love visitors.

Non members book their events through our web site and are issued with a pdf receipt. This is to be presented to the Ambassadors on arrival at the Business Biscotti event.

Everyone pays for their tea and coffee to the venue direct - (NB: receipts for tea and coffee are issued by the venues)

Gold Clubs are a little more structured... they are "safe" environments where members can discuss topics, ask for help, support one another and learn "stuff" that is relevant to business.

Each Club is different as we give the Ambassadors flexibility on how they run their Clubs.

However, they generally have a presentation, a meal (breakfast, lunch, supper), and time for interactivity between members/guests.

There is always networking, with other attendees.

Members & non members need to pre book online through our web site. Members receive a discount of about £5 - £10 depending on the Club. (pdf receipts automatically generated)

Business Biscotti is GREAT VALUE - We are a really cost-effective membership – for only £99 and NO VAT for a calendar year's membership. It is the same for all individual s in companies.

Our total annual costs for members to regularly attend events are substantially lower than the annual costs of other membership organisations – especially as we are NOT VAT registered and have a FLAT FEE for larger Companies.

PLUS - There is no joining/registration fee.

Is it the same fee for every company?

We have a flat fee for every individual in every company to encourage a diverse range of companies and their people to join.

The membership fee shows everyone within the network is serious about business but we make affordable even to the newest start-up company. It means larger companies get to meet smaller companies and vice versa, established firms meet fresh and challenging new businesses, exchanging ideas, information and contracts.

Around 30% of our membership are either members of or attend other networks. We actively encourage all businesses to find networking opportunities wherever they can.

The biggest difference is the amount of events we run and our concept of “flexible & open” Clubs.

You are not limited to an area - Borderless - networking means no limits on size, area, sector or ambition.

• We are relaxed – flexible, friendly, professional - but FUN
• We offer CHOICE – over 500 Club events EVERY YEAR
• We are modern - we use social media to promote and keep our members updated
• We are PROVEN – we’ ve been going 11 years - and grown organically
• We are independent – there is only Graham and Sue Reeves who run it – in fact for 7 years we FUNDED it too!
• We are not a project - we are funded by our members and are growing fast because we tell the truth and help each other.
• We are honest and open – and have integrity
• We have FUN
• We DO BUSINESS

All our events are pre-booked via the Business Biscotti web site. You will receive a ticket and receipt, which you will need to take along to the event when you attend. Tickets are for 1 event and are not transferable or refundable.

As a member can I visit any Club?

No you have membership card – but you do need to show this on arrival at each event. If you do not have a valid card you will be expected to pay the guest fee.

You can pre-book if you want to!

Smaller companies make up around 80% of our membership, but by the government's own measures, that includes companies with fewer than 250 employees, turning over less than £5M.

We have member companies who are larger, including professional service companies, chains of hotels, professional and creative companies, and membership for them is especially useful when looking for smaller, quality suppliers.

However, networking is especially useful for smaller companies, where decision-making is a relatively less-involved process, and it is decision-makers who attend our network.

As a MEMBER - simply login to businessbiscotti.co.uk find the event you want to visit and BOOK – your discount will automatically be applied and a receipt will be generated for you.

As a NON MEMBER – you can “try” out a GOLD CLUB by simply buying a ticket at the usual rate.

All our venues support our philosophy of “giving back” we do not pay for venues therefore we expect you to respect that and support them by purchasing a coffee, tea or beverage.  The cost varies from £3 - £5

I would like to attend occasionally but I can’t commit to regular monthly attendance

We offer a “Business Biscotti Club Associate” (BBCA) .

This is designed for those people who only want to attend - 1 Club - & only on an ad hoc basis for e.g visit Coventry Business Biscotti Club only – say 3 or 4 times a year.

Associates are NOT MEMBERS, and need to purchase a ticket to attend each time.

Associates are by the very NAME “ASSOCIATED WITH” 1 CLUB only.

You can only be associated with 1 CLUB i.e. Wokingham, Solihull, Mayfair etc.

All tickets are for a single event on a given day. They are not transferable or refundable.
