July news
Thank you to those of you who attended GPN on Wednesday 15th July
at the White Swan. Your support is really appreciated
and it was lovely to see you.
I am pleased to announced to you in preview that gpn.one is now live and gives
you more information about our Network, not too dissimilar
to that contained here, but with the advantage of all being
in one place gpn.gb.net
continues as this is our hub where you are still able to
contact each others directly. Let me have your feedback.
Some
information about GPN:
The Gay Professional Network is your platform to promote your cause, your business, venue and yourself. It helps your further your business or career and makes meaningful business and social contacts. You get connected, proactive and productive.
It is also a get together of like minded people who enjoy meeting other people. All very nice people in a relaxed atmosphere.
You may want to read a few facts, such as how far reaching we are, about GPN, here. We are now several million in the world! Possibly the biggest network anywhere.
To be a fully fledged member of GPN cost £1 a day, £ 5 a week, £20 a month or £200 a year payable on a recurring basis which gives you FREE registration to all the networking events, including those in the City, Walthamstow and more to come. If you are ready for this, proceed here. This link gives you the LinkedIn and Facebook addresses. We connect you with people anywhere in the World.
Our newest full member is Martin Gilbert from the Direct Line Group.
There are many advantages to be a member such as free legal, financial, property or events consultation and free entries to many clubs, discount and other perks. (Registration/membership does not necessarily include drinks and canapes, we rely on the venues to sponsor this in exchange of considerable publicity to our Network worth several thousand of pounds, we try to support venues owned and managed by LGBT people)
It was good to meet new and old friends. I trust you made some useful contacts last night.
Thank you for Béatrice Colbrant for taking the pictures: they can be seen here, if you would like to learn French contact Béatrice directly, I heartily recommend her. Mazz also took some pictures, please send ;-)
The raffle for Positive
East raised £53.04, thank you very much for your
generosity. The winners of the raffles prizes are too
numerous to list here and again thanks to the generosity
of Beatrice Colbrant for donating most of the prizes,
pictures of the winners are on Beatrice's Blog here.

Introduction to the Gay Professional Network
I know what you are thinking when someone say "Networking", you think about these event
where no one has time to discuss with everyone, where it is difficult to talk to each others, where
there are too many people or the music is so loud that you cannot speak or even hear what people say.
Where the relationship are not primarily professional and these events don't bring you anything.
And if you are one of these people who like me do not want to associate networking with
that then I suggest you to discover our networking events, because they are completely
different!
How? Because I, Jean-François Dor, have put myself in your place, I provide
you with an individual badge with your name and what you do (as oppose to title or company name)
to facilitate contact with other. My events bring together a group of people between 10 and 30 people
to enable you to talk with everyone.
I also do not allow people to be on their own and will introduce you to people of interest to you. You will feel welcomed, relaxed and at ease in our company.
You also have the opportunity to speak to all and be able to talk briefly about your business.
It is very important to me that the meeting takes place in a very relax atmosphere, for
that I chose different venues who respond at these criteria.
My priority is not to make profit but to allow YOU to broaden your professional relations
and allow you to develop your business.
Now the only thing that you can do is to come to my events to discover by yourself !!!
