What is the meeting format?

BRX meetings are designed to help members to build trust in each others and a strong understanding of each others' business. The focus is to ensure members are happy to refer colleagues to their contacts and are able to recognise opportunities for each other.

After informal networking, members have the opportunity to present their needs to each other, asking for the connections that will benefit their business, whether to clients or businesses with whom they have a synergy.

Many meetings feature a 10 minutes spotlight on one member, enabling them to describe their business in more depth or develop understanding in other ways. At other times, groups will brainstorm current business issues, break into smaller groups to focus on one business or take other steps to help build relationships and understanding to a stronger level.

Each meeting ends with a referral and feedback session, where people pass their business contacts to each other, followed by more informal networking.
