Open to all Essex Businesses
Essex Business Forum allows all business types to apply for membership. Application is not automatic acceptance and we will follow-up upon the business references you provide. Our committee will process your application and inform you of your outcome. This shouldn’t sound off putting – any business that operates ethically and has a good track record is likely to be welcomed.
Apply to Join Now »Non-Exclusive Membership
Unlike other networking groups we do not operate a policy of exclusivity (only one member from each trade or profession), however any existing members do have an opportunity to stop your application if it is felt that your business would impact upon theirs, however it is most common that members who work in similar businesses actually end up doing MORE business by working together.
For a current list of all members within our group please look at the member profiles page.
Value for money
Because we record information about all of the business that we pass during our meetings, we have calculated that the average value of membership is around £30,000 per year in new business.
Compared to other forms of business marketing, membership to Essex Business forum is tremendous value for money and great fun at the same time.

- Carpet Cleaner
