Note from the hosts
Hosted by Padel and Travel, in partnership with MC Square Coaching and Force 4 Events, this event is designed for Atomicon attendees who already love Padel, as well as those who have always wanted to give it a go in a welcoming, supportive environment.
We’ve managed to secure an M3 Padel Academy as our venue, which is a world class academy for high performance training for top Padel players around the world.
This event reflects the shared values of our three organisations: bringing ambitious people together, creating memorable experiences and fostering authentic connections that extend far beyond the court.
WHY Padel?
Padel is renowned for breaking down barriers and creating conversations that simply don't happen in traditional networking environments. Between matches, players will have plenty of opportunity to build genuine relationships with fellow entrepreneurs, business owners and Atomicon attendees in a relaxed, energising setting.
NOTE: Venue is 10 mins by car/taxi and 15mins by train from Manchester Piccadilly
