What is the seminar before THE networking lunch?
“A – Z of networking – your route map to successful networking”
Networking is definitely a buzz word today. Type “Networking” into Google and you get 670,000,000 results, type “business networking” and you get 433,000,000 results, “business networking events uk” 65,400,000 results and a mere 210,000 results for business “networking events exeter”. But why?
With so much choice and material available there must be reason and combined with the facts that

There will be questions
- But why?
