Networking in Geneva
Brits in Business is a dynamic and informal networking group where individuals help each other to generate business opportunities. It focuses on the British entrepreneur, but is open to all Anglophones in business.
Brits in Business was created in 2005 by UK Trade & Investment in Geneva and a group of British entrepreneurs who felt they lacked a forum to learn from other entrepreneurs, to share business ideas and to make new contacts.
Our evening events include elevator pitches, speed-networking and guest speakers who are invited to share their experiences.
