Upcoming Events
We run a programme of exciting and diverse events where our members can meet policy makers, discuss policy and network with other business leaders and entrepreneurs.
“The Business Network offers a great opportunity to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs, executives and professionals from a wide range of industries and professions. We regularly gather to explore key business challenges and policy ideas with Lib Dem MPs, Peers, and influential speakers.
