Do bring your business cards to network .

Look at pictures from previous events on YOUR WebSite .

Registration/membership usually includes a drink on arrival or more and sometimes nibbles, we pay for it unless it is sponsored. Most events break even. GPN has operated since 2010 on a non profit basis. The excess pays for websites, promotion, stationary, transport, banners etc. We rely on the venues to sponsor this in exchange of considerable publicity to our Network worth several thousand of pounds and we support venues owned and managed by LGBT people). If you do know someone who would like to host our events please let me know.

If there is a photographer in the room, please let him/her know if you do not wish your picture to appear on the website or facebook page and tagged. It is assumed that everyone is happy to have their pictures to be used for the promotion of the network.

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, in London and elsewhere. If you are ready for this, proceed here.There are many advantages to be a member such as free legal, financial or events consultation and free entries to many clubs, discount and other perks.

Full cash bar in operation once the venue has stopped serving the refreshments offered and further nibbles can be purchased from the bar.

I also would like to invite you to a FREE event tomorrow, Wednesday 10th, at the same place and time for a purely social evening.

I very much look forward to seeing you and your friends and colleagues to make meaningful business and social contacts.

With best wishes,

Yours truly,

Thank you for coming yesterday !

Thank you for attending GPN yesterday at The Village.

Your support is really appreciated and it was great to see you.

Thank you to Village and its staff, particularly Callum McBrearty, who made us most welcomed and we look forward to coming back regularly there. Very regularly in fact as we are starting from February onwards some social evening, free of charge, every 2nd Wednesday of the month for the London Gay Network and the London Gay Ginger Guys.

GPN & GBA meet EVERY 3rd Thursday of the month.

We want to support our gay pubs as they otherwise disappear and will not stray away from them again if we can help it...

Ryan Lock was very good at giving us 3 new income strategies for your business and how to make more money in 2016.

Darrel Linehan talked about he helps you to find new customers, Bas Stronks talked about the services Quixote consult offers and Ian Dodds gave us an insights about his coaching and counselling that was most compelling and baffling.

GBA will organise a LGBT "Dragon's Den" in February to which we are all welcome, more to come or look at the Website... GBA; why don't you join GBA too, this is the LGBT chamber of commerce, of which I am also the Chairman.

It was good to meet new and old friends. I trust you have made some useful and meaningful contacts last night. Do keep in touch with them and I. I have been around for some times and have a very extensive network of businesses and contacts anywhere in the world.

Beatrice sadly was not there last night as she usually takes pictures. If you have taken any pictures, please send them to me so that I can post them on the various platforms, if appropriate.

I did not mention yesterday, but I should have, as Adrien and Pierre and I will be in one of the future edition of Attitude, Adrien and Pierre won the Award for the Young LGBT Entrepreneur of the Year! myGwork is going from strength to strength and yes I am a shareholder before you ask... you can register on this platform to look at your next move in your career or hiring someone from the LGBT Community.
