Our mission

We're on a mission to make networking less rubbish

NetworkPal is the free, independent guide to business networking across the East Midlands.

The story

We got tired of finding out about great networking events the day after they happened. Sound familiar?

Between Eventbrite, Meetup, Facebook groups, LinkedIn posts, and random websites, keeping track of what's on was a full-time job. And half the time, the best events were the ones nobody was shouting about online.

So we built Network Pal. We track every networking event across the East Midlands — from breakfast meetups to evening socials, workshops to conferences — in one place. You text us on WhatsApp asking what's on, and we reply with the events that match. No app, no signup, no list to subscribe to.

It's free, and it'll stay free. Always. Texting Network Pal to ask about events will never cost you a penny — that's the whole point.
