Ecosystem Builders Meetup: Birmingham
Join The Entrepreneurs Network for an informal morning meetup at The Compound, a unique creative studio space in central Birmingham.
This session is designed for ecosystem builders – the individuals and organisations whose mission is to drive innovation, develop the UK’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and strengthen innovation communities.
Ecosystem builders come in many forms, from accelerators, incubators and venture builders to university and corporate innovation teams, tech-transfer groups, innovation agencies, science parks, coworking spaces, local authorities and business networks. If your work strengthens the environment in which founders and businesses operate, this meetup is designed for you. For this particular Ecosystem Builders Meetup, we are also opening up the guest list to founders in our network.
Come connect over coffee, croissants, and conversation with fellow leaders who believe in collaboration, shared success, and building a stronger, more innovative economy.
The meetup will formally begin at 11am with coffee and short introductions from Birmingham ecosystem leaders, but guests are welcome to arrive from 9.30am to settle in and work from the space. Open networking will continue throughout the day.
Please note that we are asking guests to request to join before being accepted, as capacity is limited and we would like a good mix of people in the room.
All of our events are free to attend. Please get in touch if you have any questions regarding accessibility.
