Urbano Networking Podcast
Urbano has been bringing together company founders, entrepreneurs, directors and senior professionals across all sectors to connect, engage, learn, share, and develop mutual business opportunities from our beginnings in Shoreditch in the early 2000's.
Our podcasts feature recordings of our speaker networking events on a range of topics and themes relevant to businesses, but especially those that create and run SMEs which are at the core of our community.
Urbano events and podcasts are produced by Talent Lab.

"Thousands of small businesses to benefit from new government buying rules, boosting local jobs, growth and innovation"
This headline was published by the UK government to highlight its priorities for the new Procurement Act, including “driving economic growth and strengthening supply chains by giving SMEs.. a fair chance" of winning a larger share of direct tenders and places on project supply chains.
As Urbano Network, we have been helping bring SMEs into procurement by creating business communities to engage business owners and encourage collaboration, drive innovation and create real new business opportunities through training and explaining the benefits of becoming a supplier to the public sector.
This podcast is a recording of our recent Urbano speaker panel event, where representatives from AECOM, Peabody, Mace, and Trowers & Hamlins and an audience of SMEs discuss the impact of the new rules and policies.
