About this event

Join us for an exciting business-effective ‘round-table’ opportunity to connect with different business people and leaders from diverse sectors from all around the region.

Elevenses is informal and fun, but will give you real ideas and concepts that will help your organisation to flourish.

Taking place every two months, attendees gain insights into exciting opportunities and tools to help your business develop and grow.

Working in a round-table format, at the surgery style summits we discuss challenges, top tips and share ideas you can take back into your own organisation.

Operating as a peer-to-peer forum open to all, and led by the multi award-winning entrepreneurs and co-founders of KuKu Connect, Stephen Goddard and Philip Brooks-Stephenson.

At each Elevenses you will be able to introduce your business or organisation to the whole group and, as always at KuKu there will be time for informal connecting and 1-1s, all over fresh coffee (no instant coffee here) and pastries with our KuKu Elevenses Partner host, EMA Hilton Hotel, easily located in the centre of the East Midlands, just off J24 of the M1, with complimentary car parking. Open to all - both members and non-members of KuKu Connect.
