About Us
“Networking has turned my business right around and opened the doors to me growing my business from comfort zone to the growth zone.”
Jade Binsted, founder of The Ribbons Network
We are passionate about ensuring your business grows. To do this we make it our business to find out about your business, where you are going, what your goals are and how quickly you want to achieve them.
From this, we support you in building a networking strategy to enable you to network with purpose and clarity to ensure you can communicate effectively how you need to be supported.
In turn, this will successfully build you a strong support network around to grow your business.
We are your sustainable, growth focussed network.
Why are we different? We are you, we are relatable, we have experienced what you have experienced, we are accessible, we are humble, we are inclusive… in essence, you are just like us.
Our purpose is to create fun, nurturing and supportive networking environments for business owners, just like you.
Our mission is to continue building a national community of passionate business owners to grow in an inclusive and supportive environment.
Our vision is to run a national community, that business owners want to be a part of.
The Ribbons Network is for you if you run your own growing business and understand the need to create a support network around you to learn and grow with.
We run welcoming and respectful events in Hampshire, Berkshire, Surrey, West Sussex & Dorset which are always a no-clique zone.
Our events are run for you, to help you grow your network, your business, and yourself. You will gain support, friendships and knowledge in a family feel environment. All enabling you to grow your business.

Testimonials
“I had the pleasure of attending my first Networking Event with Jade and also doing the photography.
Truly I was blown away. Not only by the organisation of the event, which Jade made look effortless but also the engaging and fun aspect, while also keeping everything very professional, really stood out to me.
I could see people making real connections and having the chance to network in a great relaxed environment. Such a great job Jade. ”
