Business Networking Events in London

by Stephanie Scott Internet Marketer

Networking is a critical part of staying in the business game. You might think that just showing up to work and doing a good job is enough to make your mark on your field and get you noticed. While those are important aspects of getting noticed and earning a great reputation, that’s only half of the job. You also need to ensure that you develop a strong network of people who are also passionate about your field. This group of people will help you to advance in the field by showing you new opportunities you may not have known about before. They will also give you the chance to learn more things and grow within your field. However, they don’t just materialize. You need to network and make these connections.

Here are a few of the best events in London that will help you on your path to growing an amazing business network.

1.      Professional Networking in London – As the name implies, this is a group for professionals in the London area that want to network with other people who have similar interests. They have meetups as well as helpful and targeted workshops to help you improve your career while meeting new people.

2.      Young Professionals in London – This group boasts over 24,000 members, and with so many young professionals you are bound to meet a group of like-minded professionals to catch-up with. Most of their events appear to have fun party themes, and center around great food and drink options. Networking in a relaxed and fun environment can help the conversation to flow more easily and allow you to make connections without the intimidation factor that comes with some of these events.

3.      Women in Business Networking – London – If you are looking for a supportive group of professional females to help you learn more about your career and perhaps advance in the field, look no further than this group. Their monthly meetups are hosted in and around London, and they typically work through lunch to make sure you are making the best use of your time while getting great information and networking.

4.      London Entrepreneurs Network (also known as LEN) – Are you an entrepreneur looking to network with other entrepreneurs in the London area? If so, then this group might be perfect for you! It has been around since 2008 and has an impressive membership base of over 30,000 people who are entrepreneurs and own their own businesses. Joining this group is a great way to get access to an impressive organization of people who work hard to advance their own businesses. They are undoubtedly a hugely talented bunch that will prove to be a great resource for any new or established entrepreneur in the London region.

 

Remember, when you go to any business networking event you need to make sure to bring business cards and always be professional. If you meet someone that you think might be a great connection, get their card and don’t be afraid to reach out. Sometimes you can meet a lot of people in just a short time at these events. That’s why it can be helpful to keep a pen with you and jot down a short description of your chat on their card. That way when you reach out, you will remember what you talked about. At first, networking might seem a bit intimidating, but it is a great way to find amazing people with similar interests. Attending one of these London networking events can help you to find new inspiration and a great circle of colleagues!
