NLab: creativity and collaboration

CreativeCoffee Club Leicester restarts at Phoenix Square Digital Media Centre, 25 Nov

CreativeCoffee Club Leicester was founded in 2007 as a meet-up and networking event after the style of the OpenCoffee Club. It aims to provide a place for business people, academics, teachers, public sector workers and managers to network, exchange ideas and discuss how to foster creativity and innovation in the workplace. Membership is free.

For the last two years CCC Leicester met at the Graduate Bar, De Montfort University, but Wednesday 25th November 10am-12noon will mark the first networking event at our new venue, Phoenix Square Digital Media Centre, the new location for the Phoenix Arts cinema in the heart of Leicester's Cultural Quarter.

This first session includes a tour of Phoenix Square with Creative Director Tom Holley. Plus, come and meet our new coordinator, Jayne Childs

Come and relax, share ideas, listen to stimulating speakers and generally meet new people over coffee.

Get directions and let us know you're coming by registering at Eventbrite.

CreativeCoffee Club is part of NLab, working with small businesses and new media.
