Description
Get together with a bunch of brilliant people, entrepreneurs, creatives and east London independent businesses for an evening of sparking ideas and connections, at brand new Hackney Wick venue Beer Merchants Tap.
This is the first in our new series of themed Echo Socials, where we'll aim to get you thinking as well as connecting. This time, we’ll be exploring the nitty gritty of collaboration, and uncovering stories of unlikely allies coming together to achieve incredible things.
We want to delve into what happens when different people come together to solve a problem or create something new. How do we navigate the challenges of working with others? How can we apply the principles of unlikely collaborations to our own projects?
Come join us for...
- Beer Merchants Tap's astounding range of craft beers (and other drinks too)
- Delicious grub from some of our Echo++ foodie alumni
- Curated connections with Echo members old and new
- Inspiring short talks designed to get you thinking
