LinkedInLocal Croydon – Tues 24 July, evening

LinkedInLocal Croydon, Tues 24 July, Eventbrite listing:

“a meet-up idea which started in Australia in 2017 and has since become a global movement. The idea is very simple, to put the social back into social media and to meet the person behind the LinkedIn profile.”

“This is NOT an evening to ‘sell’ or ‘pitch’ to each other,” the event description adds.

The venue is Matthews Yard, an arts & creative hub in central Croydon. It’s a 10-minute walk from East and West Croydon stations. (Mattthews Yard’s theatre is the only one in the UK to be fully crowd-funded, the hub’s website says.)

There’s a charity partner too, with a collection at the event: Evolve Housing + Support.

“We provide much more than a roof – we are a place of positive change and growth, enabling people to move on and lead independent lives,” the charity’s website explains.

I was very pleased to be at the first LinkedLocal event in Croydon earlier this year. (Many thanks to Jennifer Corcoran of My Super Connector for making LinkedInLocal Croydon happen.)

This is from my testimonial on Eventbrite:

“The atmosphere? Warm and convivial. Looking forward to the next one already…”
