This month, we're hosting a lunchtime fireside workshop with Tom Hegarty. He's a serial entrepreneur who's spent the last ~23 years building and exiting several businesses, ranging from an outreach education provider to a multi-BAFTA award-winning video games developer. Tom mentors a number of start-ups and founders across a range of industries, and is in the process of building his next venture...

Tom's talk takes place between 12:30pm and 1:30pm



On-street parking is available around the venue, and there's an NCP is over the road
