We asked for good company and that’s what we got!

On Thursday 26th June we held the Creative Republic WM networking event at Concrete, below the Big Peg in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. From 6pm onwards a wide array of creatives from all over the region arrived in great spirits, and true to our word there was “No pack drill...No speeches...and No charge”.

The event brought together the region’s creatives with a common purpose, to add their voice to our growing Charter www.creativerepublic.org.uk/charter. The evening provided a friendly atmosphere, for like-minded creatives to meet, find out what we’re all up to and broker ongoing relationships.

Although being a Charter signatory was almost a pre-condition of attending many guests came along and signed up on the evening, which was great and thanks for your support!

Board member, Jemima Cattel, had this to say about the event “It was a great night, with an impressive turnout of people from all over the region and across all sectors. I’m really excited by the new sign ups and I’m sure with the up and coming schedule of events we can continue to offer the kind of networking and support that the region’s creatives are after.”

We had positive feedback from the event which led to many networking opportunities to develop Creative Republic across the region. For those who missed the networking event, the next two events are scheduled for 6pm on Saturday 2nd August and 6pm on Thursday 21st August and further details will be available very shortly.

The Original Invite

We’d love you to come and join us for an informal networking evening on Thursday 26th June. No pack drill ...No speeches... And no charge.

It’s an opportunity to get together with other creatives, to share what you’re doing and find out what they’re up to, as well as meeting Creative Republic board members who’d love to know what you want from a membership organisation. We’re planning a range of events over the summer so come and find out more. On us. The deal is that we’ll provide a couple of drinks, Concrete will provide free nibbles and you’ll help to provide good company. Whilst it’s an event not to be missed, it’s only open to people who’ve signed up to our Charter www.creativerepublic.org.uk/charter.

It’s quick and simple and just takes a couple of minutes. Feel free to bring some friends along, they just need to sign up too. Look forward to seeing you there:
