- About
GPN is a not-for-profit, fully inclusive membership organisation founded in 2010.
We provide a dynamic platform to promote your cause, business, venue—and yourself. Whether you’re looking to grow professionally or socially, GPN helps you make meaningful connections that are proactive, productive, and impactful.
Who We Are
At GPN, inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. We embrace diversity across race, ethnicity, age, disability, body type, sexual orientation, gender identity, and creed. While our community is currently 88% gay cisgender men, we warmly welcome everyone.
We bring together like-minded, kind, and engaging individuals who enjoy meeting others in a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere.
What We Do
GPN is active worldwide, building lasting social and professional relationships.
We host monthly networking events (except August and December) at the Civil Service Club in London—a safe, welcoming venue offering affordable food and drinks. Other events include lunches, dinners, socials, and online gatherings. We also support affiliated organisations and LGBTQ+ owned or operated venues.
Why It Matters
Our members have seen real results:
- Attendees increased their turnover from £500 to £24,000 through GPN networking.
- Over £25 million in funding has been made available to our members.
Networking works—and it works best when it’s inclusive.
Our Mission
Together, we tackle homophobia and other forms of discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community.
We advocate for education in schools, families, and society at large—promoting love, respect, and understanding for all.
I look forward to meeting you at one of our events.
Warmest wishes,
Jean-François Dor | Founder
