At a glance
A three-hour, in-person business networking event for startups and professionals, taking place at The Refinery Citypoint in London on 28 July 2026. The speed-networking format may suit founders who want a time-bounded way to start conversations with a broad mix of attendees rather than attend a longer, content-led event.
HIKOMORE’s take
Consider this if your immediate priority is meeting new professional contacts and practising a clear introduction to your business. Speed networking rewards preparation: arrive knowing the type of person you want to meet, the problem you solve and the next step you would like to propose. It is less likely to be the right use of an evening if you need detailed advice, a focused sector audience or a guaranteed commercial outcome.
Best for
- Early-stage founders building confidence in describing their business
- Startup team members seeking new professional connections
- SME leaders with a concise offer or collaboration proposition
- Professionals who prefer structured, time-limited introductions to open-ended networking
