About this Event
Next Wave Creatives is a free networking series designed for graduates, freelancers and emerging creatives across London’s creative industries.
Each Saturday we’ll focus on a different creative field, bringing together people who want to connect, collaborate and create opportunities together in a relaxed and inspiring environment.
Whether you’re just graduating, building your portfolio, starting freelance work, launching a creative business or simply looking to meet like-minded people — this is for you.
Hosted alongside the Studio 101 Creative Market, this is more than just networking. It’s an opportunity to step into a real creative community, discover local artists and businesses, and build genuine connections in person.

Last Film Makers Networking hosted by Adrian Silas
Although each week has a creative focus, the sessions are absolutely open to crossover between industries. Creativity naturally overlaps, and some of the best collaborations happen when different worlds connect. For example, a music artist may attend the Film & Content session looking for someone to shoot a music video, or a model interested in acting may come along to meet filmmakers and producers. So please don’t feel restricted by the weekly theme — if a session interests you, you’re very welcome to join.
