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**

Hello! We are organizing a picnic for anyone interested in making amateur short films (our first meeting!).

We will be sitting on the grass opposite the Italian Gardens Cafe, a 2-minute walk from Lancaster Gate tube station. Every Saturday. Bring a picnic blanket, snacks, and drinks. You can also bring scripts or showreels on your phone or tablet to show others if you like. We will provide nametags so you can write your name and your creative role. If you cannot find us, message us on WhatsApp: 07349 918417 The Italian Gardens Cafe is nearby for drinks and food. This event is happening at the same time and place as the weekly language and culture picnic, so there will be other people around.

**Yep, they're finally back! With the temperatures a little kinder and the sunshine still here... on Friday, we'll be hosting our first Summer Picnic of the year!** Yep, we’ll be marking the start of the weekend in Kensington Gardens (Hyde Park) with social drinks, good vibes, and plenty of friendly new faces. And over the evening, there’ll be the option to play some light-hearted park games like spikeball, frisbee, and football, but you're just as welcome to come along and unwind in the sunshine. You’re also welcome to bring along any board games or card games to play, any snacks or drinks you want, and maybe something to sit on to stay comfy. And then as the sun goes down and the temperature dips, we’ll head to a nearby pub to carry on the evening with anyone who wants to keep things going. These picnics are rather rare and always a special occasion, so we’d love for you to join us while the sunshine lasts. **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN WE WILL MEET** Meet Point - Kensington Gardens Bandstand, Hyde Park ([https://goo.gl/maps/hS9T58cpHr1EFAtp8](https://goo.gl/maps/hS9T58cpHr1EFAtp8) ) Closest tube stations: High Street Kensington (10 Min walk), Gloucester Road (15 min walk), South Kensington (15 min walk) Start Time - 6:15pm Finish time: 9:30pm **\-\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **JOIN THE COMMUNITY** Set up in November 2021, the project was set up to help 20s and 30s in London meet, connect and hopefully build life-long friendships.

**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.
