A community where every business belongs
BoB Networking was founded with a simple vision: to create a networking community where members can flourish not only in their businesses, but in themselves, too.
Tina Duggan | Founder of BoB Networking
Today, our community of much-loved business groups can be found across the UK. Through a positive culture of trust and collaboration, we offer fun and welcoming spaces where every member matters.
Together, we share connections, create brilliant opportunities and support each other to achieve business success – the BoB way.

Our values with our members at the core
Integrity
We expect the highest standards of ourselves and those we work with. From our members and guests to the venues we hire, we operate with respect at all times.
Empowerment
We’re here to help business owners on their journey. We empower people to believe in themselves, so we must also have this same self-belief.
Fun
Our networking groups are joyful, shared spaces full of laughter. We take business
seriously, but we don’t take ourselves tooseriously.
Inclusivity
At the heart of BoB Networking is honesty, authenticity and respect. We give everyone the freedom to be themselves.
Sustainability
To us, sustainability is about creating stable communities of long-lasting relationships, where business owners can find the confidence and strength to thrive.

A different energy
This is not networking as you know it. BoB Networking events are fun, friendly and community-driven. We create a welcoming atmosphere and we want people to feel good about themselves and their business.
Inclusivity at our core
BoB networking groups are vibrant and inclusive spaces, where everyone is encouraged to be their authentic self. It’s your journey that matters. So whatever your previous networking experience, we’ll support you to build confidence, grow your business and develop a flourishing referral network.
Learning opportunities
When it comes to business, there’s always something new to learn – and the same is true of networking. That’s why continual learning and development is integral to our ethos. From writing an elevator pitch to exclusive members’ training, we ensure everyone can get the confidence and tools they need to succeed.
Tools for the future
We’ll help you plan your goals and intentions for each quarter, so you can reflect on your progress. And we’ll introduce you to future opportunities like podcast appearances, newsletters and engagement on our app.
UK-wide networking events
Our BoB Networking groups are run by brilliant meeting hosts in areas like Oxfordshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire. We’re building a supportive community where local business owners can share ideas, practise their networking and – crucially – have fun!
