Following the success of our last Hastings networking event we are introducing a series of further events bringing the social enterprise community together to learn, collaborate and support each other.

This next event will have three themes:

Successful Crowd Funding

Jason Nuttal from Crowdfunder will run a short session giving an overview of all you need know to run a brilliant crowdfunding campaign that will bring your idea to life.

Open conversations

An opportunity to meet others in the room. We know from feedback that is unstructured time to spark new ideas and partnerships is often what people value the most from our events.

Support for Social Enterprise

We want to hear your views on the support that social enterprises need to thrive. We'll be asking what help you need and how can we work together to achieve more.

This event is for anyone interested in social enterprise, whether you are already involved or simply interested to understand more.

UPDATE: We are pleased to confirm that our Social Enterprise Networking event next week is going ahead but switching to a virtual location. We hope you will join us for our first online event as we put the latest video conferencing technology to the test in sharing useful information, building new connections and helping drive the social enterprise movement forward!

Here’s an overview of how the session will run…

First up, you’ll have the opportunity to hear from Jason Nuttall from Crowdfunder discussing how to plan and run a successful crowd funding campaign. This will be followed by a crowd funding Q&A session.

We’ll then divide the meeting into a series of short 1:1 breakout sessions giving you the chance to meet and speak with others in the room.

Lastly we’ll be bringing the room back together for a conversation about the support needed to help social enterprise thrive and to get your feedback on a proposal for a shared social enterprise workspace in Hastings.
