  • Meet and network other small business owners from across the region.
  • Connect with academic experts from Kingston University and University of the Arts, London.
  • Deliver your own 7 minute lightning pitch to spread the word about your business, or simply find out what others are doing in your region.
  • Build your network by connecting with other participants in dedicated breakout spaces.

Lightning talks will run from 15:30 onwards, and we will publish the schedule for these two weeks before the event.
