What is Open Coffee?
The purpose is for business people to be able to make useful connections, advise and mentor each other informally, maybe even do business, in a relaxed, supportive environment, free from pressure, intimidation or requirement to dress in a black, pinstripe suit!* It’s a non-threatening way to introduce yourself to business networking, and expand your business reach. You’ll also be sure to develop some lasting business friendships.
The emphasis of the original movement is on entrepreneurs and start-ups. However, we want to make everyone welcome to Open Coffee Mid-Ulster, from those just setting out, to those who’ve been running a business for years. The group is free. You need only buy your own coffee or tea.
