Informal networking meetings
in Kidderminster
We always meet in the same place; at the Severn Valley Railway pub in Kidderminster. It’s a central point for many of the businesses that attend our group and a well loved destination that we have come to know as the home of SVBG over the years.
Our meetings are fairly relaxed, with a chance to mingle before getting into the main session with 60 seconds from all attendees, as well as a 10 minute presentation by one of our members. We always make time to share feedback & any referals however this isn’t compulsory.
What our visitors think…
We love to meet new people, here are some kind words from our most recent visitors!
Friendly, informal atmosphere…
I was most impressed with the friendly informal atmosphere. It is clear that the group is very supportive and are willing to work for each other. I felt most welcome and look forward to hopefully attending more meetings.

A breath of fresh air!
I have been to various other network meetings and usually been left to try to break into the cliques that have developed… I was introduced to various people and others came up and introduced themselves. People were friendly. A breath of fresh air! Also, I came away with referrals.

Given me faith in business networking…
Relaxed, welcoming and friendly. No pressure to hand over contacts and has given me faith in ‘business networking’ again after being put of for several years from one of the more high pressure groups.
