How To Get To Harvey Nichols, Bristol The access to Harvey Nichols in Bristol is via the side door (partly obscured by sca ff olding at present). This is the entrance facing H & M of Cabot Circus on Penn Street, (and not the store entrance along from The Apple Store on Philadelphia Street). The door opens to Members and Visiting Guests at 7.15am and we'll get going with co ff ees in the Top Floor Restaurant (via lift). Parking - the easiest option is the NCP at The Marriott. It is less than 1 minutes walk to the venue. Alternatively, Cabot Circus Car Park is nearby and 7 minutes walk.

Welcome to EVO Business Club. Please take a moment today to review this Event Factsheet beforehand. EVO was founded in October 2015. We’ve grown from 4 to 12 groups since the lockdown started and now we’re back in-person! We have limited numbers for this special trial meeting and we’ll o ff er you either a green or red sticker upon arrival to indicate whether you’re comfortable with handshakes etc. This is an opportunity for you to meet around 18 other business people, connect and network, mastermind a business question and hear from a speaker: EVO Founder, Jamie Breese and our first-ever group leader - Matt Richardson, too. If you’d like to find out how to apply to become a Member of one of the groups, please contact us before the event, ask the team or stay on at the end of the meeting where we can informally chat.

Our Keynote Speakers Jamie Breese & Matt Richardson

Matt Richardson: Group Leader

Matt launched the first group meeting for EVO in April 2016 at Bristol's Brasserie Blanc restaurant. The following month, we moved the meeting to the 13th century monastery which was part of the complex. Matt runs his own business called Recognition Express and is a band member in Limited Edition. Matt leads EVO Genesis with both a sense of urgency with an eye on the clock, but an immensely playful spirit. People come to his group for a fun start to their week and a big liftoff which lasts well after the meeting ends. He has been networking for years and leads several groups. He started helping Jamie as a Co- Host at the Only Connect meetings (500+ people per meeting) back in 2008. Connect with him on LinkedIn today here.

You can book-in for Genesis here.
