Telford Business Partnership is the local network for Business and Professional firms operating in Telford, Shropshire.
Established in 1990, the Telford Business Partnership now represents some of the most dynamic and successful professional businesses in the local sector. Members range from large multi nationals and household names to smaller, more specialist companies and providers.
The aim of the organisation is to bring together the best service providers to supply a first point of reference for any organisation or individual requiring access to specialist expertise. The members are extremely keen to promote collaboration between the members to provide the right blend of skills to meet every possible business opportunity. Despite the difficult economic conditions, Telford Business Partnership has continued to flourish with their quarterly breakfast meetings and workshop programme attracting increasing numbers of members and guests. The workshop programme continues to thrive with members sharing their expertise in a wide range of topics; from the business benefits of social networking through to working in partnership with local Universities.
The success of the network was recognised by Advantage West Midlands who surveyed the membership as part of their regional research project into the effectiveness of the Business and Professional Service Networks. They concluded that Telford Business Partnership is one of the most effective networking groups in the region.
