Pinner business networking in person 17th September 2025

Welcome to our Pinner business networking in person group.

Grow your business networking connections in Pinner, Harrow 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 Pinner 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.

Fabulous Networking is a membership organisation, but visitors are always welcome. No profession or gender restrictions. We believe that there are opportunities to be gained by working with our competitors. You’re welcome to attend up to three of our events before making a decision about joining.

Your attendance fee is £15 (£12 for members) to cover venue and light refreshments. This is a tax deductible business expense and receipts will be issued.

Our core values of support, learning and inspiration will be woven through the meeting. We want you to leave feeling it was a morning well spent.

A typical Pinner agenda

Our agenda is structured but flexible to help you get the most from the meeting on the day.

• Informal networking with light refreshments
• Take your seats for the structured part of the meeting
• Introductions to all present
• Speaker, this month… Alex Jovanovic  How to prepare and start using AI in your business
• Discussion, hot seat or business activity
• Wrap up

Introduction round

We vary our introductions each month to keep them fresh and interesting whilst building our understanding of your business.

In September we’d like you to tell us…

What makes you different? We’re suggesting that you use AI to help you identify 2 or 3 things that differentiate you from your competitors. This article suggests how you might do that.

Our speaker.

Alex Jovanovic is a learning and development specialist helping business integrate learning into their business strategies. He also works in the field of AI helping businesses to understand how to use it to the best effect.

In this talk Alex will take a whistle stop tour through…

• General AI – what do you need to be aware of
• What are the models, advantages, and limitations and how to use them
• How to make AI agents, which platforms to use
• First steps – how to decide where to employ and use AI

Our venue

We meet at Kafe Ador in Hatch End, it is highly rated and praised for its food, service and ambiance. It could be the perfect place for a one to one before or after the meeting. The venue is a short walk from the Grymsdyke Rd car park and there is on street parking in the area but please check restrictions.

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.

A mix of interesting people running a wide variety of businesses. Zoe Angle
