What is LEN?

Lisburn Entrepreneurs Network (LEN) is a networking and discussion forum for small businesses based in the City of Lisburn. LEN will offer networking events and practical information sessions aimed at addressing key business issues and promoting local business development.

Each networking opportunity will focus on a specific business topic or issue driven by an expert speaker, and with a local business representative sharing their experiences.

When is LEN?

LEN takes place on the last Thursday in each month throughout the year at the Lagan Valley Island Centre, Lisburn. Breakfast and registration is at 8:00am, with a half hour seminar from 8:30am to 9:00am, followed by Q&A and networking until 9:30am.

Does it Cost?

LEN networking events are free of charge, as it is funded by Lisburn City Council and the European Sustainable Competitiveness Programme 2007-2013.

How to Register

2 Minute Business Spotlight
