Come out and share a pint with other startup folks (everyone welcome, not ICT specific). A chance to meet new people, catchup with old friends and talk about what you're up to, what you might need help with.

Count yourself in!
Venue: The Blue Door Restaurant and Bar, 100 Regent Street (Map)

It’s a simple concept: a grassroots effort to make sure startup folks get in touch and stay in touch.

Best described by the folks that started this whole thing:

So what is Startup Drinks?

a) A drinking group with a startup problem.
b) A low key, unstructured group drinking (coffee, beer or spirits) event that happens in cities across the world
c) Therapy for startup junkies (you don’t have two days to go to a conference, but you do have two hours and would love to stay involved in the community)
