If your mission is to drive innovation, develop the UK's entrepreneurial ecosystem and strengthen innovation communities — join The Entrepreneurs Network and the NatWest Accelerator for an informal morning meetup at the Bristol NatWest Accelerator Hub.
Ecosystem builders come in many forms — from accelerators, incubators and venture builders to university and corporate innovation teams, tech-transfer groups, innovation agencies, science parks, coworking spaces, local authorities and business networks. If your work strengthens the environment in which founders and businesses operate, this meetup is designed for you. For this particular Ecosystem Builders Meetup, we are also opening up the guest list to founders in our network.
We host several of these meetups per year across the country, with this being our first in Bristol. We will meet at Bristol NatWest Accelerator Hub in the heart of Bristol City – a space for founders to access the insight, connection and encouragement to grow their business.
The meetup will formally begin at 11:30am with coffee and short introductions, but guests are welcome to arrive from 9am to settle in and work from the space.
11:30 – 12:00: Coffee and networking
12:00 – 12:30: Short introductions
12:30 - 13:15: Light lunch
Open networking and other Global Entrepreneurship Week events will continue throughout the day. Other events on the day include: please register here - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1997561122089
