There’s nothing quite like a summer heatwave in the city, is there #EventProfs? Smiles on faces, balmy evenings, post-work alfresco dining and overflowing beer gardens – it’s a yes from us! Ok sure, we’d probably prefer to be having a nice cool dip in crystal clear waters on the coast somewhere instead of getting all hot and bothered on the tube, but then we’d be missing out on all of the golden networking opportunities that lie in store for us this month! It’s time for our event round up for August, so grab your diary and let’s get busy!
Campus Community: Yoga (August 1)
12–12:45pm
Main Event Space, 4-5 Bonhill Street, London EC2A 4BX
Not your conventional networking event – we know! But we are advocates of stepping back from our endlessly pinging inboxes and rolling out our mats for some down(ward dog) time. Give your back a chance to relax (releasing the tension, after all those long days of sitting at a desk) and grab a chat with some fellow entrepreneurial yogis after – you never know who you might meet.
Turing Fest (August 1-2)
EICC Edinburgh
The ultimate gathering for tech tribes, all the way up in bonny Scotland, boasting 6 mini-conferences in one: Product, Engineering, Strategy, Growth, Marketing and Culture!
