The Cowbridge Business Club was launched in January 2015, with the sole purpose of supporting Cowbridge & local businesses. Running a business is often a challenging and lonely prospect. However, working with and supporting other businesses can help overcome these challenges. The Cowbridge Business Club provides a platform for businesses to collaborate, generate business and offers a unified voice to champion their concerns. The Cowbridge Business Club guarantees to place the interests of its members first and will constantly seek new ways and ideas to support and help develop its members businesses! The club firmly believes that business networking can and should be different. The answer to this question is quite simple: Often early morning meetings don’t work for people who have other commitments.

Either the possibility of business or a new skill or piece of information that you can implement in your business today! The Cowbridge Business Club is looking to establish a support network for local […]
