Welcome to The Rural Meeting Place

Who are we?

The Rural Meeting Place is a privately owned networking organisation that provides its members with a focal point for business to business communications. It is a rural hub for business in Shropshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Powys . Read more about us here.

Networking fatigue - Are you suffering from it?

Are you fed up with the fact that high quality business to business networking seems to be centered on the larger towns like Shrewsbury, Worcester, Hereford and Telford?

Have you got better things to do at 7.30 a.m. than travel out to these places for weak coffee and bacon sandwiches?

Are you looking for a change from those networks which have set formats like quotas for referrals to other Members and standing up for a 60 second repeat advert of what you do and where everyone is trying to sell you something?

Then the Rural Meeting Place may be just what you are looking for. The Rural meeting Place is the fastest growing independent business to business networking organisation located where you are.

What the Members say:

" This is not quite like all the other networking we do. Its somehow more relaxed and you tend to develop proper business relationships over time" Andrew Corbett, PerfectArc Ltd.

"The changing format of the meetings makes it lively and interesting" David Willett, Auditel.

"Discussions at The Rural Meeting Place meetings are focussed on the needs of its Members, and it is invaluable to hear how others have met the challenges which I face in  running my own business." Mark Harding, Flowtherm Ltd.
