BNI Farnborough Jets

11/06/2026

⚽ The World Cup starts tonight, but judging by this morning's meeting at Farnborough Jets, some of our members were more than ready for it.

With every member challenged to deliver a World Cup themed weekly presentation, the room quickly filled with flags, football shirts and plenty of creative thinking. There were lots of laughs along the way, but also plenty of conversations, connections and opportunities being created around the room.

It was a great example of what makes the chapter special. Business always comes first, but a bit of personality and fun helps make those Thursday mornings something people genuinely look forward to!

🏆 Best Weekly Presentation – Anthony Potter, iPrint Anything Ltd

Anthony took this week's win and earns the full 2 minutes next Thursday 👏

Keeping with the World Cup theme, Anthony spoke about clothing for clubs and teams, highlighting how iPrintAnything helps businesses, organisations and sports clubs showcase their identity through professionally branded clothing.

Whether it's team kit, branded workwear or promotional clothing, Anthony demonstrated how the right clothing helps keep a brand visible and memorable.

🎤 Feature Presentation – Sam Swinstead, vivoHR

Sam focused on vivoHR's brilliant Fractional HR Director service, helping businesses access experienced HR leadership without the cost of a full time HR Director.

A flexible solution for growing businesses, charities and organisations needing senior HR support exactly when they need it.

🎤 Feature Presentation – Robert Head, The Holiday Inn Farnborough

Robert gave a fascinating insight into why the Holiday Inn Farnborough is so much more than just a hotel.

Alongside its bedrooms, conferences, weddings and events, the hotel plays a huge role in supporting the local community through charity initiatives, sponsorships, blood donation sessions and fundraising activities.

It was a brilliant reminder that the Holiday Inn Farnborough is not just a venue used by the community, but an active part of it.

⚽✈️ The World Cup kicks off this week… and what better time to celebrate the power of teamwork. 🏆

Great teams do not rely on one superstar ⭐

They trust each other 🤝, pass with purpose ⚽ and work together to reach the goal 🥅

That is exactly what happens every week at Farnborough Jets ✈️

Last week alone, our members passed an incredible £160,323 in business between one another 💷📈

A result that shows what is possible when everyone plays for the badge 💙💛

If your business is looking for a team that helps each other succeed, perhaps it is time to pull on the shirt and join the squad 👕⚽

⚽ The World Cup officially kicks off this week... and it is making its way into Farnborough Jets too.

This Thursday, our members have been challenged to deliver a World Cup themed weekly presentation.

Our members always find a way to make these themes their own, so we're looking forward to seeing what they come up with 👏

Whether you are a football fan, know nothing about football, or fall somewhere in between, it should make for an entertaining morning!

🏆 Best Weekly Presentation – Guy Prince, Aspire Network Solutions

Guy took this week's win with a brilliant presentation and gets the full 2 minutes this Thursday 👏 Aspire Network Solutions help businesses ensure their network infrastructure is secure, reliable and ready for future growth.

Your business relies on information, and information relies on data. Aspire gives businesses the confidence that their cabling infrastructure is secure, future proofed and ready for growth.

We are looking forward to hearing more from Guy this Thursday.

📸 Last week's meeting was another great example of what makes Jets such a strong group of local businesses.

Every week, business owners from a huge range of professions come together to build relationships, share opportunities and help each other grow.

People often think BNI is all about referrals.

Referrals are important, but they start here.

With conversations, trust, friendships, plenty of laughter and a room full of people who genuinely want to help each other succeed.

This is what a Thursday morning looks like at BNI Farnborough Jets 😊

📐 Structural Engineer
🦺 Working at Heights Trainer

👇 Tag them below or get in touch to come along and experience a Jets meeting for yourself.

You never know who might be one introduction away from their next client.

🏆 Best Weekly Presentation: Ryan Godfrey, Elements Architectural Studio

Ryan gave a brilliant overview of how good architectural design can help bring projects to life and avoid costly mistakes further down the line.

From extensions and conversions through to larger residential projects, Ryan demonstrated why having the right architectural partner can make such a difference.

We are looking forward to hearing more when he gets the full 2 minutes this Thursday 👏

🌟 Also this week... With Hayley Duncombe

Following her Best Weekly Presentation win the previous week, Hayley took the full 2 minutes to demonstrate just how simple a proper skincare routine can be.

With the help of volunteer Danny from Smiles At School Photography😄, Hayley demonstrated that a proper skincare routine can be simple, effective, and just as important for men as it is for women.

🎤 We then moved into two fantastic feature presentations...

Tanya Daye, Clear View Administration

Tanya talked the room through how she supports busy SMEs who need help but are not quite ready to recruit a full time employee.

From administration support through to ongoing business assistance, Tanya offers both retained and pay-as-you-go services, giving businesses the flexibility to get help when they need it most.

A great solution for growing businesses that need support without the commitment of another employee.

Jonathan Smith, Thorpes Physiotherapy Ltd

Jonathan explained why Thorpes take a different approach to many physiotherapy providers.

Rather than simply handing clients a sheet of exercises and sending them away, they focus on treatment, recovery and achieving the best possible outcome.

He also highlighted the free talks and presentations Thorpes offers to groups and organisations, tailoring sessions to suit their audience, including golf clubs, sports groups and community organisations.

⚽ Meanwhile…

The Farnborough Jets World Cup sweepstake officially launched 😄🌍

Some members were absolutely delighted with their teams…

Others were already questioning their life choices 😂

Safe to say the summer banter has officially begun 🍻

💍 And by the weekend, many of the Jets were back together again celebrating James Cox and Mitch both of Bespoke IT Solutions Ltd, who got married on Saturday at our home venue, the Holiday Inn Farnborough ❤️

It was such a brilliant day and evening, and so lovely seeing so many members there celebrating with them 🥂

Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together 👏

Your effort, referrals, and commitment don't go unnoticed. Keep leading the way!

18/05/2026

One of the things that makes us different is that the conversations do not stop when the meeting ends.

Last week alone:
🤝 Members were working together on jobs
🍻 Members and partners got together again for another Jets quiz night
📈 Referrals and collaborations were happening across multiple businesses throughout the week

And honestly… that is when you realise this is much more than just a networking meeting.

It is a community of businesses that genuinely know, trust and support each other.

🏆 Best 45 Seconds – Laszlo Daragics, Isolio - www.isolio.ai/

Laszlo took last week’s win with a brilliant presentation and this Thursday he gets the full 2 minutes 👏

Aspen specialise in:
🌿 Ponds

🚪 Fencing
🏡 Driveways

But more than just talking through services, Kelly brought real energy, personality and passion to the room.

Exactly the kind of presentation that reminds people why relationships matter so much in business.

💬 What makes Jets work so well?

Many of the businesses in the room are natural referral partners.

Trades, services and specialists working with similar clients, understanding each other’s businesses properly, and confidently recommending one another.

That is why opportunities continue long after Thursday morning finishes.

And importantly… we still have seats available for businesses looking for more natural referral partners 👀

Visitors often say the same thing after coming to Farnborough Jets for the first time…

“I didn’t expect the room to feel like this.”

Not stiff.
Not forced.
Just a room full of business owners genuinely looking to support each other and help each other grow 👏

That was definitely the feeling again this Thursday.

A room full of business owners showing up ready to support each other and get things moving.

🏆 Best Weekly Presentation – Hayley Duncombe, With Hayley Duncombe

Hayley shared a slightly different angle this week… and it really landed.
