Hello everyone!

You are invited to the very first Create Brighton event of 2014 and it is going to be smashing.

Our last event hosted talks from some really inspiring innovators and entrepreneurs who sparked off some fascinating and engaging conversations. This time round is set to be just as awesome and we can't wait to see you there.

We have arranged three pioneering local speakers who I am certain you will really enjoy and learn from:

Pete Burden - Conscious Business People (http://www.consciousbusinesspeople.com/)

Dr. Tom Smith - OCSI (http://www.ocsi.co.uk/)

Cat Fletcher - Freegle (https://direct.ilovefreegle.org/main.php?action=look&groupid=21) & Brighton Waste House (http://arts.brighton.ac.uk/business-and-community/the-house-that-kevin-built)
