Showcase your LGBTQ+ Business

GPN has a page on this website and they asked us to promote them, this is not an endorsement as no due diligence has been made, GPN doesn't accept any responsibilities etc.. 

NEW – showcase your  LGBTQ+ business

I’d like to introduce you to the LGBTQ+ floor in the Exhibition Hall – which is part of The Networker platform.  We have a dedicated LGBTQ+ floor specifically for those businesses who want to trade within the community.

This is a brand-new way of promoting your business to 50,000+ business people across the UK every month.

 

The format is a free-to-use virtual Exhibition Hall, open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Here you can easily find the goods and services you need to run your business. Each one of the 60 floors are dedicated to different specialisms. Each floor contains a maximum of just 30 booths, showcasing only 30 companies who are experts in their field.  

 

Next year we will launch a dedicated LGBTQ+ Suite as there has been a fantastic response already from the community.

 

If you want to speak about this further, please drop me a note and I’ll be glad to show you around this brand new and exciting networking site.

 

Kind regards
Sam
