Who's behind it

Katy Elliott, who grew In The Loop to over 270 members in two and a half years, has set up The Business Loop with three other experienced business people.

Every director has had a business fail, hit rock bottom, and come back to build a successful one. They know the pitfalls and how rocky the ride can be, and that's exactly why they're the right people to help.
