      WeDO is one of Scotland’s most exclusive support and collaboration organisations for high achieving entrepreneurs with in excess of 150 members including some of Scotland’s leading entrepreneurs. Membership is usually by invitation or referral and subject to approval by our Executive Team. With an ethos of sharing knowledge, ideas and experiences, we support our members by facilitating introductions, giving guidance and help to facilitate business growth and organising relevant topic based events. We are not a traditional ‘networking’ group and do not subscribe to the common view that networking is about gathering as many business cards as possible and selling to people we connect with. Our view, and that of our members, is that by meeting like-minded individuals we can build long-term and trusted relationships in an environment driven by the desire to succeed whilst helping Scottish entrepreneurs to grow their businesses. Our Young Members Club brings together our early stage members with those with more experience to support them and share best practice in an informal mentoring environment. We are always happy to hear from potential members who share our values so please get in touch if you'd like to find out more. Show less
