Black Country Business Club
Exclusive closed networking club for businesses across the region*
The Black Country Business Club provides a platform where individuals can build business relationships, promote their products and services within a friendly and supportive environment.
The Chamber is passionate about helping businesses do business, we believe people buy from people and we are enabling our members to meet like-minded people and expand their reach.
The Business Club meets every fortnight on a Thursday morning from 9.30-11.30. For a full list of event dates, visit our events page here.
At each Club meeting, one delegate has the opportunity to co-host a meeting and has a ten-minute slot to promote their business and every other delegate gets the opportunity to provide a short 60-second pitch, to share their latest news or highlight a key product/service.
Don't take our word for it read the testimonial below from Jenny Homeshaw, Corporate Development Manager, Black Country Living Museum.

"As a networking opportunity I would highly recommend this Business Club, as all who attend are keen to help each other achieve their goals.
