Lessons in Entrepreneurship: The Business Advice No One Tells You at the Beginning

Join us at Jennymount Business Park for our next relaxed and practical networking event, designed to help local business owners, entrepreneurs and professionals connect, learn and grow.

This month, we’ll be sharing real lessons from the journeys of our tenants, networking attendees and local business community. Together, we’ll explore the advice, insights and top tips that, in hindsight, would have made the start-up, growth and scaling journey smoother, clearer and less stressful.

Whether you’re a start-up founder, serial entrepreneur, established business leader, freelancer, sole trader or someone responsible for business development, sales, growth or scaling, this session is for you.

Come along, ready to share your own experience, offer a useful lesson you’ve learned along the way, or simply listen and learn from other business owners and leaders.

What to expect

Everyone will have the opportunity to briefly introduce themselves to the room, including who they are, what they do, what they offer and what they’re looking for.

If you’re new to networking, don’t worry. We’ll share a quick and easy formula to help you introduce yourself clearly and confidently. And if you decide to pass on giving an introduction this time, there will be no judgement.

This is a supportive, relaxed space to practise, learn and grow your confidence, with no pressure and no jargon.

Whether you’re new to networking or want to sharpen your approach, this event will help you show up, speak up and stand out.
