Hosted by Amanda Young, our enthusiastic Network Master of Ceremonies. Amanda will begin with a warm welcome and a brief update on the latest Sussex Chamber member news and upcoming events.

How it works:

The room is arranged with an inner circle of delegates who remain seated, while the larger outer circle rotates to meet each person one-to-one. You’ll have 4 minutes each to introduce yourselves, making a total of 8 minutes per pair. This slower pace gives you time to genuinely engage and start building stronger relationships, no rushing, no pressure.

The outer circle moves clockwise to meet the next delegate, ensuring you get to speak with everyone in the room. It’s networking reimagined to be inclusive and approachable, perfect for those who find traditional speed networking intimidating.

Why you’ll love it:
  • Stress-free introductions: Walk in not knowing anyone, walk away having connected with everyone.

  • Quality conversations: The extended time lets you really get to know fellow professionals.

  • Inclusive format: No hard selling or forced pitches, just authentic, meaningful networking.

  • Proven success: Our members consistently give great feedback and report tangible business benefits.

Join us to experience networking that’s less about rushing and more about building real business relationships. Whether you’re new to networking or looking for a more enjoyable way to connect, Go-Slow Networking is the perfect fit.

Held at the stylish and contemporary Brighton Harbour Hotel & Spa, this event offers a sophisticated and welcoming environment right on the seafront. With its modern facilities and calming coastal vibe, the venue sets the perfect tone for relaxed, meaningful conversation and genuine connection.
