Ealing business networking in person 4th April 2025

Welcome to our Ealing business networking group.

Grow your business networking connections in Ealing and beyond.

Running a business can be lonely. Who do you turn to for support? How do you meet potential collaborators or suppliers? Attending our Ealing business networking group will introduce you to people who care about you and your business. They may become customers or introducers. They will almost certainly become supporters and friends.

Our March Ealing business networking agenda.

Our agenda is structured but flexible to respond to the needs of the group on the day.

There’s time for some informal networking over a hot drink and cake.

Our speaker this month is Alex Jovanovic who will be speaking about the opportunities and threats of AI.

We’ve ditched the pitch! They become very repetitive. Instead, we vary our introductions with a different theme each month. In April we’re asking you to introduce your business in one sentence and three bullet points. This article will tell you more.

The cost is £15 (reduced to £12 for members) including a hot drink and cake.

Your host

Glenda Shawley is the MD of Fabulous Networking. She’s been in business on her own account for over 30 years. She’s an experienced marketer and trainer. Don’t get Glenda started on her family’s golden retriever puppy, Polly! She’s a bit besotted.

Our speaker.

Alex Jovanovic is a learning and development consultant. He’s a great believer that learning and development should be fully integrated with a business’ objectives. Alex has a background in IT and has worked in both the public and commercial sectors before establishing his own business in 2024.

Our venue

We meet at Rayuela, a fine dining Spanish restaurant in the new Dickens Yard development in the heart of Ealing

There’s an underground car park accessible from Longfield Avenue (best joined from Gordon Rd. as there are turning restrictions with the Uxbridge Rd and the cameras take no prisoners!). There are other car parks on Springbridge Road

All bus routes along the A4020 are accessible. Ealing Broadway station is now fully accessible and serves National Rail, the Elizabeth Line and the Central and District Lines. It’s about a 5 minute walk.

Reasons for attending.

• Running a business can be lonely, it helps to have friends in business. We can become those friends.
• Every business needs to reach new customers, when we understand what you do and who you do it for, we can introduce you to potential customers.
• Support and learning are two benefits our members frequently praise our community for.
• Our meetings are relaxed but purposeful. No pressure to bring referrals and no attendance rules. We hope you’ll come because you enjoy it.

Fabulous Networking is a membership organisation, but visitors are always welcome. We don’t restrict attendance by profession or gender. We believe that there are opportunities to be gained by working with our competitors. Visitors are encouraged to attend up to three of our events before deciding if they’d like to join.
