Welcome to www.crowborough.biz and your Local Business Network
"everything we do is driven by what local business people say they want"
The Local Business Network exists to support and inform businesses in Crowborough and the surrounding area within North Wealden.
It offers a range of networking events, provides business related information from a variety of business support/training sources, is a useful contact point for enquiries and represents local business interests.
There are currently over 300 local contacts that benefit from membership for which there is no charge; it operates through e-mail.
It's a 'win-win' situation for companies of all sizes and business sectors - all it takes to join is an e-mail to: tonyslack@crowborough.biz.
This site is dedicated to local businesses from all business sectors in and around the Crowborough area throughout North Wealden.
All the Business Breakfasts at Waitrose for 2009 are noted in the calendar of Business Events displayed below.
Plans for 2009 also include: the possibility of 3 very informal early evening events throughout the year similar to the one held last November at High Spirits with one of them being held at The White Hart. Charles Lant, the Chief Executive of Wealden District Council will be asked to be our Guest Speaker at one of our Business Lunches. One or two lunches will also be held at the Plough & Horses Public House in Walshes Road.
Work is gradually being undertaken to transform this site into a 'live' site by Tony Slack, the Chairman of the Local Business Network (one of four operational arms of The Crowborough Partnership). There will inevitably be a few teething problems to overcome so apologies for any you come across. It will take a while to complete the task.
Items have started to be logged under Action Plan/reports that are regularly made to the Executive Management Board of Crowborough Partnership.
Business Issues and Hot Topics is now 'live' and eventually, links will be made with relevant message boards to enable you to comment.
A Local Training section has now been added to this website. It is for use by any local company/organisation that offers any form of business related training opportunities within a reasonable distance of Crowborough. Individual providers will be asked to provide a link of their choice along with a very brief description of their company. The purpose and criteria that I will use my best endeavours to apply is outlined on the Local Training page
