The Golden Path
An uplifting business community

No hard selling. No tedious presentations. No ridiculously short or long pitches. No wasted afternoons, early morning starts or endless online chat rooms.
Just good company, inspiring conversations and new opportunities.
The Golden Path Network is an uplifting business community where people come together to connect, share ideas, support one another and enjoy a genuine sense of belonging.
I believe the best business relationships develop naturally, when people feel relaxed, inspired and have the opportunity to get to know one another and build trust.
Drawing on ten years of experience running The Oxfordshire Project and hosting more than 800 events nationwide, I’m creating a welcoming community where friendships flourish, ideas are exchanged and new opportunities emerge.
Our meetings are personally hosted, relaxed and enjoyable, with guest speakers whose purpose is to inspire, educate and encourage fresh thinking. No pressure to sell, no awkward pitches with a timer, just interesting people and meaningful conversations.
Affordable and accessible, The Golden Path is an investment in yourself as well as your business.
A place to feel supported, inspired and part of something special.
Where it goes from there is yours to discover.

About Ben Molyneux
I’ve spent much of my working life creating businesses, bringing people together and discovering the opportunities that come from making new connections.
I founded The Oxfordshire Project, a business networking community that grew to 24 groups and around 300 members. Over ten years, we organised more than 800 events, bringing together thousands of business owners, creating friendships, collaborations and countless business opportunities.
What I enjoyed most wasn’t simply running the meetings. It was watching people connect, seeing friendships develop, businesses grow and people discover opportunities they might never otherwise have found.

I’ve also organised personal development groups, founded the community Mahwe and worked individually with people through coaching.
Alongside my business experience, I’m an artist, photographer, author and screenwriter. Creativity, curiosity and a love of people have always played a big part in my life.
The Golden Path Network is a return to something I genuinely love, but with the benefit of everything I’ve learned in recent years.
I want to create a community where people feel welcome, valued and inspired. Somewhere you can enjoy yourself, make friends, learn something new and leave feeling better than when you arrived.
Because I believe business networking should enrich your life, not just your business.
