Testimonials
Networking is by far the greatest opportunity to help build lasting business relationships and create brand recognition. Sonny Cutting and Network Xpress have a professional and friendly way of opening doors for all type of small and medium sized businesses.
Was great to be part of a fantastic show. It was well organised and had a great vibe and we really enjoyed meeting lots of different people. We can’t wait to return in 2023.
Thank you Sonny always professional and great to work with.
Since joining the Directors Hub I have made great contacts and new friends. I have been able to help others and I have also been helped in the way of knowledge sharing and introductions/recommendations. Plus I get to hang out with other people walking a similar path to me, and there is great comfort in that.
Great event at the Sussex Business Show. Fantastic venue, a real buzz, and well organised. Learnt new stuff from exhibitors, had some really good conversations, made important new contacts – almost like a giant networking event. Definitely going next year!
We have participated at Network Xpress over the years, and it is truly one of the best networking sessions in our area.
Sonny is fantastic at putting these things together, looking after all details- big and small. Truly recommend attending.
Fantastic show, with well over 300 visitors and over 80 stands, all in the fantastic Ardingly Show ground. Much better than any other show I have had a stand at. Will definitely be working with these guys again!
The Sussex Business Show was well set up. I was on crutches and at the event in March 2020, and the staff went out the way to help me set up my FSB stand. They came out to my car in the pouring rain to help me, bring everything in to the event. I’m elated by their customer service and the support they offered, thank you.
Sussex Business Show – what a fantastic event. From the pre-event build up and momentum that Sonny created it was obvious this was going to be an extra special event and it didn’t disappoint on the day. It started with the warm welcome at arrival and then the day unfolded into a variety of events, speakers, stands and games activity. The overall buzz and energy of everyone attending was the icing on the cake. Thank you Sonny and crew for such a brilliant day!
I’ve been to a few of the Sussex Business Show events and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is very positive and professional. There’s always fun activities to do and of course lots of networking opportunities! Sonny and the team do a great job of organising these events and I would highly recommend them to any business owners big or small!
We would like to thank Sonny and his team for a very successful expo at the East Sussex National last Thursday (21st March) 2019. It was a great event and we enjoyed being part of the day. We would recommend the event to others looking to meet contacts and as a way of promoting their business!
Excellent friendly and fun shows with superb networking opportunites! We have been sponsors for the show for three years now and we’ve just taken on the mantel of Award Sponsors.
Network Xpress is a great organisation that has a family feel about it. Once you start to work with Sonny, you will see the benefits of his extensive connections and wealth of knowledge of how to promote events and people. I would definitely recommend either attending or exhibiting at one of Sonny’s events, they are fun and you always leave with at least one potential client and lots of goodies.
I think the Sussex Business Show has found a new home at the Dome!
It was by far and away the best event that Sonny has organised and perhaps the best show since the Let’s Do Business event at BHA stadium!
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to attend any of the speakers as I was manning the stand solo. I think the quality of exhibitor and the attendees was far higher than the Business Show in Excel that I have attended for several years. The Business Show is plagued by people just looking for freebies, that wasn’t the case at the Sussex Business Show.
We had some really interesting conversations with attendees and took the opportunity to catch up with a number of existing connections.
Sonny is very professional and is well connected with business owners all across Sussex. Network Xpress events are excellent for meeting other like-minded people and are great fun too. I would certainly recommend the Sussex Business Show to local business owners & professionals.
We’ve known Sonny for a while now through the Brighton networking scene – and not only is he a great facilitator of connections, but a super nice chap too! He can’t do enough for others and their businesses and is someone that should be at the top of everyone’s speed dial list!
The event was well executed and the venue was ideal, the break out area was very useful in the bar area, as this allowed me to hold a couple of meetings there with colleagues and businesses. The exhibition was very relaxed and most of the exhibitors seemed to be having a very good day, plus of course the event was very well attended.
The Sussex Business Show exhibition is without doubt a must to attend! Sonny and his team think outside the box with their game themed exhibitions, we embraced the idea and had an absolutely brilliant day with excellent feedback. I would recommend anyone to exhibit with the Sussex Business Show to promote their business. Looking forward to the next one.
Network Xpress is not your standard Networking or Exhibition Company they believe that business expos should be an informative and invaluable event for you, a true insight into the power of networking and marketing, yet different in the way they encourage a relaxed, informal atmosphere. What better way to get to know the companies you want to work with over a game of beat the goalie or virtual golf? Their events attract a wide range of companies and Start ups. Netxp also hosts the counties very own Tigers Pen where start ups can pitch for investment and mentorship from successful business…
It was my first time exhibiting at a business show and I wasn’t too sure what to expect but Sonny and his team exceeded my expectations – even in the rain! What made it truly special was the range of businesses that were exhibiting, all leaning in to the game show theme creating a fun, vibrant and easy way to meet business leaders. I would highly recommended the Sussex Business Show to exhibitors (no matter their size) who would like to make an impact in Sussex and to attendees looking to build relationships with established brands and service providers.
The Sussex Chamber of Commerce membership team had a great time at the Sussex Business Show. It was well-organised and there was a lot of footfall and activity, which made for an enjoyable day. We also had the opportunity to make some valuable connections. Based on our positive experience, the Sussex Chamber is keen to exhibiting again in 2024.
Everyone I hoped would be there was. We had a fantastic day catching up with other local business connections.
Next year I will make more time to take advantage of the keynote speakers, which I missed this year.
Thank you for an absolutely great event. As a punter who pre-registered, your event the Sussex Business Show offered me everything I expected. All three talks in the morning were relevant and useful and it was great to meet all the exhibitors. I have emailed quite a few of people I met to connect and hope that we can help each other going forward.
