Basingstoke NextGen Young Professionals October 2025

Basingstoke NextGen: Where early careers spark lasting professional relationships.

Whether you're launching your career or expanding your professional circle, Basingstoke NextGen offers a welcoming space to meet ambitious, like-minded peers. Founded by Clarke & Son Solicitors and Shaw Gibbs, NextGen is a vibrant networking community designed for early-career professionals to build genuine connections in a relaxed, down-to-earth setting.

We believe in breaking down barriers between job titles and real-world impact - no elevator pitches, no pressure. Just meaningful conversations that help you understand the person behind the professional.

Join us on the first Thursday of every month in central Basingstoke, where we proudly support local independent hospitality venues while growing a network built on authenticity and shared ambition. This month's event is at The Alchemy Bar & Lounge; join us for a drink after work and get to know likeminded young professionals.

Our committee are Jennifer Lee, Alex Smith, Alex May, and Ollie Plant, and we look forward to meeting you.
