Where it All Started!

While scrolling through video shorts, David stumbled upon a video that would inspire his vision to start a networking group. The video featured a famous social media person approaching successful entrepreneurs asking what they did for a living. In the video, a elderly gentleman in a Bentley revealed that he earned royalties from every credit card transaction in the US as he wrote the software. The wealthy man's advice was simple yet profound:

Each year, David and Daryl select up to four charities to highlight at their events. They provide charities with a platform to share their work and connect with the business community. This helps the charities gain visibility and raise funds to be distributed amongst the charities at the end of the year.

The idea was always to create a networking hub that was inclusive, supportive, and beneficial for both local businesses and the community. They wanted to foster an environment where small businesses and entrepreneurs could thrive without paying costly subscription fees. They sought to create a networking group where everyone running a small or medium-sized business could participate and benefit and share similar issues. This wasn’t always possible in other networking groups in South Yorkshire.
