Pinner business networking in person 20th August 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. Attend up to three of our events before deciding if you’d like to join.

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.

Support, learning and inspiration are three of our core values and 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 respond to the needs and size of the group 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… Zoe Angle, Running a creative 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 August we’re asking you to share a little of what you love about what you do. Here’s an article to help you if you need it.

Your host

Dipa Kotak is a social media strategist specialising in LinkedIn. As a former accountant she has a sound understanding of what works in business and a logical brain to apply those lessons to social media marketing. Dipa is highly skilled at getting to the heart of what matters to customers and how to present on LinkedIn to address their queries.

She is an experienced networker and host and well connected in the Harrow area.

Our speaker.

Zoe Angle is a professional stained glass artist. After a fine arts degree in Sheffield she ‘served her time’ with some of the leading stained glass studios in the UK before establishing her own business in 2009. She has worked on high profile projects such as the Baltic Exchange restoration and the memorial window to Winston Churchill in St. Martin’s Church, Bladon. Much of her work is domestic and she works collaboratively with stained glass designers and door and window manufacturers as well as directly with clients. She undertakes restoration and repair as well as designing in contemporary and traditional styles. Her specialism is fine art painting on glass.

In this talk Zoe will be speaking about the business side of a creative enterprise.

Our venue

We will be meeting at Kafe Ador in Hatch End. It’s a highly rated café praised for its food, service and ambiance. It could be the perfect place for a one to one before or after the meeting. Grymsdyke Rd, car park is a short walk 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.
• 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 start of something good. Thanks Dipa. A mix of interesting people running a wide variety of businesses. Zoe Angle

Look at all those happy and concentrating expressions! Thank you Dipa Diane Carey
