About this Event
On Thursday 15th October we'll be hosting a local business networking morning at Thetford Library with Ashley Hibbert BIPC Coordinator, Thetford and South Norfolk.
This isn’t your typical networking event.
It’s designed to be relaxed, low-pressure, and genuinely useful — a space where local businesses can connect, have real conversations, and build relationships over time (not just swap business cards and rush off).
What to expect:
• Light, structured speed networking (so you actually meet people)
• Open time to chat and connect naturally
• A short featured presentation
• Coffee, conversation, and a welcoming environment
Who it’s for:
Independent businesses, sole traders, start-ups, trades, and anyone working within or around Thetford who wants to build local connections — in a way that feels comfortable.
Why this is being started:
There are a lot of great businesses locally, but not everyone enjoys traditional networking or has the time for it.
This is about creating something different:
✔ No pressure
✔ No hard selling
✔ Just a space to get to know people and support each other
BIPC Norfolk support:
And, of course, there will be time to speak to us about the free support we offer at the BIPC to your business with one-to-ones, workshops, access to market research databases and intellectual property guidance.
