About Your Business Networks

Why Your Business Networks?

Have you ever found yourself wondering where to start with business networking? You’re unsure of the group quality, who you’ll meet, or if the experience will be valuable for your business. We’ve been there, and that’s why Your Business Networks was born.

We’ve created this platform as an answer to this problem we noticed in the field of business networking. We’re Simon Raven (he’s truly unreal!) and Hilary Chapman, the founders of this website. Simon is the networking expert behind the scenes. Hilary has over fifteen years of experience as a freelance consultant and digital agency owner,

Your guide to business networking

We aim to be your guide in this world, presenting a directory of business networks that’s easy to navigate, so you can find a group that suits your needs.
