As a member of the Halifax SAM Networking group, I very much look forward to our meetings each Thursday morning where we get to know and learn about each other’s businesses in a fun, friendly environment over a full English Breakfast! This less formal style of networking appeals to me and it really works with lots of new business passed each week. I highly recommend SAM Networking.
Ready To Grow Your Business With SAM Networking?
SAM Business Expos
My Expos are a little different to all the others.
Firstly, if it says 10am until 3pm. That’s precisely what happens. You can be safe in the knowledge that if you want to rock up at 2.30pm, then you can and we will all still be there, waiting to greet you!
Secondly, there won’t be oodles of the same types of business. Nobody wants to visit an Expo and be faced with 42 web developers or 17 solicitors, and the like. There will never be more than 2 or 3 of the same sector. Makes it interesting for everyone exhibiting and everyone visiting.
You can learn stuff too > There’ll be a bunch of seminars you can attend – keep checking back here for updates, or pop along to Eventbrite.
Networking > Make sure you allow a good few hours, as the 89 exhibitors are across 3 rooms, so you’ll need to make sure you have plenty of business cards and a lot of stamina to do lots of networking!
FREE PARKING > Thought it does get busy. The hotel staff will be available to help you find a space.
FREE BAG TO CARRY ALL YOUR MERCH > Collect this on arrival, along with a brochure explaining what’s what and where you can find everyone.
FOOD > The hotel have a restaurant on the ground floor, so if you want to make a day of it, grab a bite to eat, a coffee or something stronger, to keep you going!
FANCY A STAND TO PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS?
Then drop me a line at your earliest convenience. Email me at sam@sam-networking.co.uk Of the 89 available, only a handful remain and this is because it’s gained a lot of followers over the last 4 years, making it the ‘go-to’ Expo in the region.
See you there, Sam!

Why Businesses Love Sam Networking
SAM Networking has helped us make some truly valuable connections. Alongside getting sales enquiries, the biggest benefit has been finding reliable local businesses to work with. One member built us a fantastic new website that exceeded all expectations, and another helped is with branded merch and flyers. Sam goes the extra mile and genuinely cares about helping people collaborate & succeed, a true networking guru. Would I recommend SAM Networking? Abso-chuffing-lutely!
I am thrilled with my experience with SAM’s Networking. I first encountered the group at an event and was genuinely amazed by the warm welcome I received. The invitation to join their online networking community was unexpected but incredibly appreciated. The members are an amazing bunch of people, radiating positive energy, and every interaction is filled with laughter. If you’re in search of exceptional networking, look no further than SAM’s Networking.
SAM Networking is the best informal networking group! I only started my role at Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice last year, and I’d never networked before – so I was definitely nervous to start. I joined the SAM Networking Bradford/Leeds group and I feel like my confidence has massively grown! The group is so friendly and we all have a laugh, which makes everything much more natural and fun. I have gained some great professional relationships and friends through this group, it’s the perfect way to start my Wednesday! Sam is very welcoming, encouraging and supportive – I couldn’t recommend her/SAM Networking highly enough.
Having attended other more regimented business networking groups in the past, I feel that Sam has developed a great mix between business focus and enjoying each other’s company with like- minded people. I would urge you to give it a try.
