Founders & Freelancers Meetup

Going it alone doesn't mean doing it alone.
A relaxed monthly evening for founders and freelancers to meet each other. No pitching, no agenda, just good people and honest conversation.

Whether you're building a startup, freelancing, running a side hustle, starting a charity, or just doing something ambitious outside of conventional employment, this group is for you.

Being an entrepreneur or freelancer can be a lonely experience. You've got big decisions to make, have to keep the confidence of your clients and investors, and sometimes pretend everything is okay on LinkedIn when you're stressed out of your mind. This is a space where you don't have to do that.

The format is deliberately relaxed: come along, grab a drink, meet some interesting people. There'll be open networking, a business card bowl to make sure you leave with at least one new meaningful connection, and space for anyone who wants to share a current challenge or screw-up.

6:30:PM — doors open, drop your card in the bowl, drinks and open networking
7:20PM — optional: share a current challenge or screw-up with the group (sign up at the door). Gareth will share something to get the ball rolling
7:30PM — networking continues

This is the second event in what we hope becomes something really worthwhile. Help us shape what this becomes!
