Back in March, we launched our Virtual Coffee Mornings series to keep conversations running throughout the South West digital and tech community over lockdown. Experienced leaders and founders from Bristol, Bath and beyond came together online to discuss the future of tech, as well as to offer advice for business development and resilience during a crisis. In case you missed the live events, we’ll be sharing stories and insights from our wonderful guest speakers.
How do you build a business that successfully scales? Whether it’s hiring people, raising money, building collaborative cultures or keeping agility there’s a myriad of challenges. Our friends at Sanderson have built a panel of people who have been through it all and are here to share their journey.
Join us to find out how to get it right, what rabbit holes to avoid and the potholes to dodge.
