Enterprise Club - Inspiring Enterprise

Club Events

Most of our networking events are free of charge to members.

Events are designed to provide our members with information and advice to help develop their enterprise. This is achieved through practical workshops, presentations on various topics and the chance to network with other people.

We welcome any ideas for future events from members - this is your Club, tell us what you want to see.

If you are a company and would be interested in sponsoring an event please get in touch via email enterpriseclub@northampton.ac.uk.
