Join us for the The Plymouth RUN — a refreshing, low-pressure business network focused on real support, collaboration, and growth.
About this Event

Each RUN gathering is your space to further grow your people-first connections with professionals who believe in collaboration over competition.

No awkward pitches. No hard sells. Just genuine conversation, shared ideas, and practical support in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

What to expect:

– A warm, inclusive vibe, hosted by Mark Hinchliffe, Nikki Keen and Michael Mann.

– 1:1 conversations and group networking

– Our 5 in Five segment: 5 practical tips in 5 minutes from a guest sharing insights for your personal and business growth

– Our Big RUNdown segment: A 15 minute presentation from a guest sharing really useful information that you can actively use in your business.

We’re continuing our Buddy System to help you deepen connections and get the most from your network beyond the event.

We also proudly welcome supporters and charities aligned with our community values.

Whether you’re looking to grow your business, share what you know, or simply find a better kind of networking, RUN gatherings are for you.

Come as you are. Let’s build a community that puts people before pitches. We’d love you to be part of it.
