Better Business Breakfast | Manchester

Thu 12 Mar 2026 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM X+Why Manchester, 100 Embankment, Cathedral Approach, M3 7FA

WHAT IS IT? 


Networking, with purpose. 

Breakfast networking is back - so you can have a coffee and a croissant - and at least five conversations all before you check your emails. 

Organised and hosted by The Better Business Network (BBN), these events are designed to connect those working in the impact-driven and purpose-led space to grow impact and income, while working to create change together. 

Structured networking with a BBN twist, come for the conversations and stay for the community. 

WHERE IS IT?

Breakfast Networking is on Floor One of the 100 Embankment x+why Manchester Office, located at 100 Embankment, Cathedral Approach, M3 7FA. (Opposite Manchester Cathedral)

HOW IT WORKS

  • Arrive for 9AM, settle in with a drink, and get talking for 15 minutes

  • Speed networking for 30 minutes to meet and chat with five other people

  • 2 offers and 2 asks from attendees - fastest hand up gets to share

  • BBN news and updates for the network and new members 

  • 30 minutes of relaxed networking to carry on conversations 

BBN members or workspace members can then stay on and co-work. Please make sure you’ve booked your co-working ticket!

WHO IS IT FOR? 

Business leaders, founders, and employees looking for connection with purpose. Our events are designed to bring together those working in purpose and impact, making the world a better place for people and the planet. Whether you're Better Business Standard certified, a B Corp, a 1% for the Planet member, or on your own impact journey, this is a space for connection, conversation, and radical honesty about what it will take to change the system and change the world. 

Business networking meets ideas sharing and community building; our events bring BBN members together and help us find new connections, too. 

Non-members are welcome to attend two events to get a feel for things before becoming a member of The Better Business Network. 

WHO ARE THE ORGANISERS? 

The Better Business Network (BBN) is a business network for purpose-led and impact-driven businesses to connect, grow, and make change happen. 


We believe that you don’t have to choose between impact and income; you can grow both while advocating for systemic change and leaving the world better than you found it.
