What our
members and
visitors say...

The Business Network South Manchester is the premier event on the monthly business calendar. Karen Tems is not only a fabulous host, who can help make introductions and connections, she is an experienced, successful business women, who offers insights into making the right connections. I have come to appreciate her help and support during my time with The Business Network
Nick Brookes

I have been a Network attender of many Networks over a number of years and have to say I thoroughly enjoy the Business Network North West – South Manchester meetings which Win and Simon run. They are full of good people and there are lots of laughs! However, there is business done between the members. I thoroughly recommend this Network as a means of building business and congenial meetings with successful business people.
