About us
Digital Thursday exists to make Manchester’s digital and technology community feel more connected, collaborative and accessible. We bring people together through regular events featuring interesting talks, honest industry conversations and relaxed networking -creating opportunities to learn, share ideas and build genuine professional relationships.
Anyone working in, studying or curious about digital and technology should come along. That includes people across eCommerce, marketing, development, design, data, product, UX, technology and related fields. Whether you’re an experienced leader, freelancer, founder, student, job seeker or exploring a career change, you’re welcome.
Join to meet people beyond your usual workplace or LinkedIn feed, hear fresh perspectives and feel part of Manchester’s wider digital community. You might find a collaborator, mentor, new role, useful idea or future client or simply have a great conversation with somebody you wouldn’t otherwise have met. No awkward pitching or existing connections required: just turn up as you are.
