Who comes to Zokit events?
Zokit is for growth-minded business owners, directors, leaders and decision makers from across a range of sectors.
As a member, do I have to attend every meeting in the Hub I join?
Not at all. Attendance in entirely up to you though we do require a 50% hub meeting attendance rate if you’d like to retain your seat at your chosen hub as a hub member. If you wish, you can invite a substitute to attend in your place for meetings you can’t make. If you are unable to meet the 50% quota over a six month period, your hub membership will simply be transferred to our central (non location specific) hub and you will retain your hub plan benefits.
What are Zokit events like?
All our meetings are friendly, informal and professionally facilitated. Meetings are mainly online, using zoom.
We alternate the style and format of meetings to keep things fresh.
There are 3 broad meeting types for our Hub events:
Networking: introduce your business with a 30 seconds each round, one-to-one appointments, shout outs, member focus feature and 7minute wiZdom about something useful to grow your business.
BiZtalk: inspiring speaker with direct access Q&A and breakout group networking
Deep Dive: businesss mastermind with peer mentoring groups, problem solving, support and action focused accountability for your strategic growth.
We keep our zoom meetings to an hour and encourage members to meet for one to ones outside of the meeting.
Our in person networking events vary from facilitated table conversations over coffee, to socials, exhibitions and more.
Please see individual event pages for the specific format. You can browse and book events here.
How many people attend Zokit. meetings?
We generally welcome between 10 and 50 businesses at our regular meetings depending on the type of meeting. We like this variety – the smaller meetings give us chance for longer conversations and building deeper connections, the larger meetings open up lots of new contacts. Meetings have a mix of members and guests. Our conference and expo attract hundreds of businesses.
Am I tied into a long membership contract?
No long contracts here…
For members paying monthly we have a 6 month minimum membership, with no up front joining fee.
If you commit to a 12 month contract and pay annually you get a discount on the membership fee (2 months free).
What's the membership cost?
Can I try before becoming a member?
Yes, you can come along once to one of our Networking or BizTalk zoom meetings and one in person networking event as a guest to try it out before making a decision to join.
To book a Deep Dive mastermind you first need to be a member.
How do I book to visit or join?
Can I go to any event as a member?
HUB members can attend all weekly meetings in their home hub. You also have roaming rights to the other Hubs if the specialism isn’t already filled at a specific meeting by the member of the other hub (you can roam up to once a month to each other hub). This gives you the best of both worlds: build strong working relationships in your home hub and access the wider Zokit network.
If you find a different hub suits your needs more, you can apply to transfer.
Are business categories restricted to one member per category in each Hub?
Weekly Hub meetings are run with one member per principal specialism. We aim to have a balance of sectors at each meeting to encourage cross-pollination of ideas and industry networks.
As a member you can access all our in person mixer events (nominal ticket fee applies).
Can I join more than one Hub?
Yes! If the seat is available, you can join more than one hub. There is a 25% discount on the membership fee of second and third hubs.
