Urbano breakfast networking event

Urbano business breakfast networking events bring together entrepreneurs, business owners, and directors from companies in all sectors to network, share information, develop new business opportunities and find future partners.

This event is especially useful for those looking to grow their companies, or who are seeking investment and support, or just advice on improving performance and strategy.

These events are always very informal and relaxed, with plenty of time to network with the other attendees who either own, run or hold senior positions in their companies. The range of businesses represented is a cross-section of London's creative and professional sectors, all happy to share their experiences and connections.

Urbano's philosophy is that each attendee should look to pass a 'packet of value' to everyone they meet. These packets of value can be a piece of information, a promise to meet afterwards or make an introduction, or a host of post-event commitments that each specific conversation encourages.

In this way, each encounter is longer and more valuable than a room full of business people trying to sell to one another. You leave the event with plenty of such 'packets of value' and, of course, your own commitments to the other attendees.

The Urbano website also supports these exchanges as some may be some time in the future and so the event is a catalyst to real business benefits!

Our guest speaker this month for this networking event is Modwenna Rees-Mogg, founder of Angel News, a web portal and publication that covers growth companies, funding and investment. Modwenna also runs VCR, an online directory of angel investment, capital funding and private equity.

Modwenna will discuss how businesses can best prepare and present themselves to potential backers and investors based on her experience as a corporate financier and key player in this critical area between those with money and those with ideas!

Emma Eversham, Editor at Big Hospitality, commented on a recent Urbano business breakfast: "The event was really well organised..one of the best and most worthwhile networking events I’ve been to".

For each event, Urbano publishes an Event Group. This is an online group containing the profile of the other attendees. You can make initial contact and introductions as part of this group: no more rooms full of strangers! And the event group is archived so no more lost business cards and missed opportunities to connect after the event. To ensure maximum benefit, therefore please complete all information including uploading your picture!
