Build Your Al-Powered B2B Outreach Engine
Registration Must Happen on: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/building-an-ai-powered-b2b-outreach-engine-find-qualify-convert-tickets-1992273247915?aff=oddtdtcreator
From finding the right leads to the final follow-up - personalisation at scale.
Generic outreach is dead. Spray-and-pray emails get ignored, burn your sender reputation, and waste hours you don't have.
In 90 minutes, you'll build something better: an AI-powered outreach engine that finds the right businesses, qualifies them automatically, and writes personalised messages at scale that actually get opened and answered.
Not just theory. Not "use ChatGPT to write faster." A real, repeatable system — built live, around an actual EU brand. You'll watch the full cycle work end to end, then walk out ready to run it on your own business tomorrow.
Here's what you'll walk away with:
🎯 Find — Pinpoint your ideal customers and pull a clean, structured lead list from sources hiding in plain sight. AI does the heavy lifting.
⚡ Qualify — Turn your gut instinct into a scoring system the AI runs at scale, so you only chase leads worth chasing.
✉️ Convert — Write outreach that goes way beyond {{name}} — then sequence follow-ups that hold the thread and pull replies.
By the end, you won't just understand AI outreach. You'll have designed the engine.
Perfect for SME owners, founders, consultants, employees and students who want a system that works — not another AI demo.
Seats are limited and these fill fast — grab yours now.

Tuesday Hot Choc Mob
Join Us for a Hot Choc Mob Evening!
We’ll be hitting the streets of London with something simple but powerful: warm drinks, snacks, and human connection.
The Hot Choc Mob is a group of volunteers who believe a small act of kindness can mean a lot to someone sleeping rough or living through a tough time. We’re not a charity or religious group—just people who care and want to make a difference in our city.
You don’t need any experience to join us. You’ll be welcomed by our walk leader and introduced to the group. From there, we’ll spend about an hour sharing hot chocolate, food, clothing, and friendly conversation with people who need it most. Afterwards, if you’d like to stay, we’ll regroup at a local pub to share stories and get to know each other.
Items to bring along that are highly appreciated include bottled water or juice, soft fruit, tinned sardines, new socks, boxer shorts and t-shirts.
And if you have a flask for hot water - instant coffee, tea bags, instant hot chocolate, sugar and milk enable us to make hot drinks for those we meet.
If you can’t attend but still want to support us, we also have an
[Amazon Wishlist](https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3T0FPY3DHUG9A?type=wishlist&filter=all&sort=priority&viewType=list)
for essential items.
This is your chance to make a real impact in someone’s day while meeting like-minded people who care about community and connection. Spaces are limited, so click RSVP now and join us for an evening that truly matters.

Pitch.London - Founder Matchmaking & Speed Problem Solving
Pitch.london is a curated speed-networking event for founders, operators and serious builders.
Short, structured conversations. Sharp prompts. Real chemistry, fast.
The hardest problem in early-stage entrepreneurship is finding the right people. Most events leave it to chance. We don’t.
The room is curated, the prompts are clear, and the format is built for high-signal encounters between people who are actually building something.
In one evening, you can meet more relevant people than you might in months of random networking.
Two formats. One room. Zero fluff.
**01\. Founder matchmaking pitches**
Sixty seconds to share who you are, what you’re building, and what would actually help right now.
Whatever you’re looking for, the room is built to help you find it: people to build with, people to hire or be hired by, advisors and investors, or honest feedback on what you’re shipping.
**02\. Group brainstorms**
Small, time-boxed groups tackle a real challenge brought into the room.
Bring a live problem you’re stuck on. Get five minds on it for ten minutes. Leave with new angles and next steps.
**This room is for you if you’re:**
* A founder seeking a co-founder
* A founder seeking a first hire
* An operator looking for a serious team to join
* A technical builder open to commercial partners
* A commercial builder open to technical partners
* A second-time founder scoping the next thing
* An angel investor close to the early-stage scene
It’s probably not for you if you’re hunting for clients, selling services, or still working out what you’re looking for.
**Run of show**
* 17:30 to 18:00 Doors, drinks, soft start
* 18:00 to 18:05 Welcome and the rules of the room
* 18:05 to 18:35 Speed pitches: Round 1
* 18:35 to 19:15 Group brainstorms
* 19:15 to 19:45 Speed pitches: Round 2
* 19:45 to 20:00 Open networking, then drinks at the citizenM Skybar
**What’s included**
Your £25 covers your seat in the room and a drink at the citizenM Skybar after the programme.
**First 30 in get a seat**

* A mix of founders, builders, operators, and curious newcomers.

📍 Where: Simmons Bar \| Oxford Street\, 203 Wardour St\, London W1F 8ZH

CMG Gives Back: Serve Dinner at FAITH MISSION GRANT KITCHEN!
Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.
LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events!
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

**A Few Notes:**
✅ This is an **in-person event**
✅ **RSVP does not guarantee a seat** – A confirmation email will be sent one day before the event.
**TALK ABSTRACT:**
Docker Compose and Kubernetes are two of the most popular tools for running containerized applications. Their feature lists are similar. Architects and senior developers need to know how their different paradigms lead to unexpectedly different experiences in production.
Picnic with a Purpose: Real Estate Networking That Actually Pays Off

Real estate is a proven wealth-builder—it has been for generations.
But it’s not a solo sport.
You need PEOPLE—who can advise you, partner with you, bring you deals, and buy deals from you.
We’re all about bringing you the best, most active, most got-your-back people in Central Ohio, which is why our July meeting is all about real conversations with real investors at our annual Picnic with a Purpose.
This is where:
* Deals get discussed
* Partnerships get formed
* Funding relationships start
* Problems get solved faster
Bring your family. Build your network. Strengthen the relationships that actually move your business forward.
Members and first-time guests are free. Returning guests are $35.
Location is a local park and will be shared after registration.
Space is limited, so you’ll want to secure your spot now.
