June 2026 // London Webflow Meetup
June 2026 // London Webflow Meetup
In-person and online - this is the **June 2026 London Webflow Meetup**! New to Webflow, experienced, freelance, in-house, or just curious, everyone is welcome. Curious what it’s like? [Watch the one-minute teaser](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_eZDWFEuDU). ️🕰️ **SCHEDULE** **6.15pm:** drinks + mingle **6.30pm**: welcome and announcements. **6.45pm:** presentations 1️⃣ **The unsexy AI: vibe coding internal tools that actually pay off** presented by **[Ben Hammond](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bybenhammond/)** There’s a lot of noise about what AI can do, and not much about whether it’s worth doing. Ben built an internal pricing tool with AI to speed up how the studio quotes projects, then wired its database into a calculator that lets potential clients get a ballpark cost in seconds. He talks through what he built, why that problem was worth solving over the flashier ones, and how to spot the unglamorous tools that quietly pay for themselves. 2️⃣ **Building a Product Business While Running a Solo Studio** presented by **[Chris Elson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/thechriselson/)** From designer to developer to running a white-label development studio for enterprise agencies, Chris launched epicmaps, a nocode CMS maps plugin for Webflow, in the space between projects and has since grown it into a business of it’s own. Chris talks about the journey, choices, and systems that help him manage and grow both as a solo founder. **8.00pm**: social at a local pub **🌍 LOCATION** Beyond, Level 2, **The Bower Building**, 207 Old St, London EC1V 9NR Main building entrance closes at 7pm! 1 minute walk from Old Street tube station. Take the MAIN tube station exit. Entrance to The Bower building is down a side street next to the Wagamama restaurant. **📺 LIVE STREAM** Can't make it in person? Then tune into our new live stream.

London Linux Drinks: June, "The long days are here" Edition
London Linux Drinks: June, "The long days are here" Edition
The longest days of the year are here; peak summer weather to come. We arrive in daylight, and when we leave it still is not dark, but sometimes it is good to huddle in shade. Come meet like-minded people with a common interest in Linux in a lively pub at the at the June Linux London Meetup "The long days are here" edition. Whether you are a complete neophyte or Linux warrior with decades of experience, come join the chat about distros, networks, open-source software, personal projects, ... or nothing related whatever. The London Linux Drinks meetups are informal, free to attend, and welcomes new attendees. By all means encourage others to come with you. The venue is the Hand & Racquet in Wimbledon (25-27 Wimbledon Hill Rd, SW19 7NE). [https://www.greeneking.co.uk/pubs/greater-london/hand-and-racquet](https://www.greeneking.co.uk/pubs/greater-london/hand-and-racquet) Chris and Gulraj will be sharing hosting duties with at least one of us present at each meetup. Whilst we realise that this venue is not as convenient for some people as our central London former haunts, the pub is only 2 minutes walk from the station, and Wimbledon is exceptionally well connected (only 17 minutes out of London Waterloo mainline, lies on the Sutton branch of the Thameslink, and is a terminus of both the District Line and the Croydon Tramlink). The pub is on the flat, at street level, including the toilets, although the space reserved for us (presently, at least) is a raised mezzanine area up a small number of steps at the back of the pub. We aim to be inclusive, so if this presents an issue, we'll work with the pub to adjust the arrangements in the future. Sign-ups are open. Please come join us. Directions from the station: Exit the station through the main concourse (near the District Line platforms), turn right along the main road, passing the taxi rank on Orinoco Lane. Cross Alexandra Road at the traffic lights, pass the gym on the corner, then continue past the chemist to reach the pub.

Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson.
