I don’t think I’ll ever be a natural when it comes to networking. I’ve attended numerous networking events in London in recent months. If you have an interest in all things web-related, then you could spend every evening at some tech event being held across London. Last night was an event which was both enjoyable and I’m sure productive for many who attended.
Some are hit and miss but last night the guys and gals at Outreach Digital really put on a good event. It was an event to provide free career advice for digital professionals. The speakers were informative and engaging and the atmosphere was conducive for relaxed networking. The speakers all made themselves available after their presentations and I got some really useful advice. The location, in the heart of Soho, was fantastic and the people attended were from all sectors of the digital industry.
I’d very much recommend attending future events. Check out their meetup page. I’d give the team 10 out of 10 for arranging such a well organised event. But tragically, the beer ran out halfway thorough the evening, so I’ll give them a nine……
I’m off to a WordPress event this event and hope I can benefit from another rewarding evening.
