Newport-Iow Networking Groups

Medina Business Exchange
Our business networking group meets for breakfast every two weeks in Newport. It is often said that personal recommendation is the best way of generating business. By meeting regularly and getting to know the activities of our fellow members, we are in the best position to recommend our members services to other individuals and businesses. Our meetings also provide an opportunity for Island business owners and managers to sit down and have a less formal chat about all aspects of their business, and see how others operate, what might be best business practice, and any upcoming changes which may affect business.We hope we are more friendly, and less formal, than some of the other networking groups you may have come across.
