What to expect

Our meetups are hosted at venues that share our good business values so we can support the right sorts of establishments to thrive. Your ticket includes one drink on arrival.

Once people have arrived and got settled the guest host will do a short introduction before opening up the space for open networking.

You will get a chance to meet lots of businesses within the two hours and we promise you’ll be judging the event not on the number of business cards you give out but by how you feel when you leave the space.

"Can't recommend it enough. So good to meet others in the space and hear their stories.”- Ella Wiggans, Good Beans Format 

This event will be hosted at Forage Bar & Kitchen in York.

We won't throw you into the deep end. This is a carefully curated session helping you easily connect with your fellow good business owners. You'll get the chance to introduce yourself, hear what others are working on, and then choose where the conversation goes.

"Like coming home, sitting in your living room, putting your feet up, having a cuppa with your best friends, and putting the world to rights.” - Tracy Shepherd, Pink Pelican
