Meet at The Pinehouse Cafe, Orewa - Every second Monday - 7.30 am to 9.00 am

We’re a networking group, but with a no pressure point of difference. Instead of selling to each other we pick a challenge each session, and solve it from the perspective of our different industries. This ends up in some very lateral thinking where the real results are found. And in this way of working we display our real skills for others to see for themselves. And through the vulnerability we build stronger relationships of trust.
