Tripco London · Aperitivo Italiano 🇮🇹 @Satyrio

Thu, Aug 27, 5:30 PM

From Tripco

A Londra siamo costantemente connessi tra chat, email e scadenze, ma spesso ci manca il tempo per delle conversazioni autentiche. I soliti contesti ci spingono subito a chiederci *"Di cosa ti occupi?"*, prima ancora di chiederci semplicemente *"Come stai?"*. In **[Tripco](https://tripco.io/)** crediamo che le relazioni più solide nascano da cose molto più semplici: creiamo occasioni per staccare dagli schermi, bere qualcosa di buono e conoscere persone nuove in modo naturale. Senza strutture rigide, senza etichette e senza l'ansia di dover dimostrare o vendere qualcosa. **Giovedì 27 Agosto** ci vediamo da **Satyrio**, nel cuore di Aldgate. Un'atmosfera rilassata, buon cibo e vino italiano per una serata insieme. **Cosa aspettarsi:** * **Connessioni umane:** Persone con background diversi che si incontrano per il piacere di farlo e per condividere idee, progetti o semplicemente la serata. * **Location curata:** Saremo da Satyrio, uno dei punti di riferimento per la cucina e il vino italiano in città, in uno spazio ideale per parlare. * **Libertà totale:** Nessun programma da seguire o speech formale: vieni quando vuoi e gestisci la serata come ti pare. **Info utili:** * 📅 **Data:** Giovedì 27 Agosto 2026 * ⏰ **Ora:** Dalle 18:30 in poi * 📍 **Location:** Satyrio (49 Aldgate High St, London EC3N 1AL) * 🎟️ **Posti:** Limitati per garantire a tutti uno spazio vivibile e piacevole. *Stacca lo schermo, vieni come sei.* **Ti aspettiamo per un bel bicchiere di vino!**

Pitch.London - Founder Matchmaking & Speed Problem Solving

Fri, Aug 28, 5:00 PM

From Pitch.London - Founder Matchmaking & Speed Problem Solving

Pitch.london is a curated speed-networking event for founders, operators and serious builders. Short, structured conversations. Sharp prompts. Real chemistry, fast. The hardest problem in early-stage entrepreneurship is finding the right people. Most events leave it to chance. We don’t. The room is curated, the prompts are clear, and the format is built for high-signal encounters between people who are actually building something. In one evening, you can meet more relevant people than you might in months of random networking. Two formats. One room. Zero fluff. **01\. Founder matchmaking pitches** Sixty seconds to share who you are, what you’re building, and what would actually help right now. Whatever you’re looking for, the room is built to help you find it: people to build with, people to hire or be hired by, advisors and investors, or honest feedback on what you’re shipping. **02\. Group brainstorms** Small, time-boxed groups tackle a real challenge brought into the room. Bring a live problem you’re stuck on. Get five minds on it for ten minutes. Leave with new angles and next steps. **This room is for you if you’re:** * A founder seeking a co-founder * A founder seeking a first hire * An operator looking for a serious team to join * A technical builder open to commercial partners * A commercial builder open to technical partners * A second-time founder scoping the next thing * An angel investor close to the early-stage scene It’s probably not for you if you’re hunting for clients, selling services, or still working out what you’re looking for. **Run of show** * 17:30 to 18:00 Doors, drinks, soft start * 18:00 to 18:05 Welcome and the rules of the room * 18:05 to 18:35 Speed pitches: Round 1 * 18:35 to 19:15 Group brainstorms * 19:15 to 19:45 Speed pitches: Round 2 * 19:45 to 20:00 Open networking, then drinks at the citizenM Skybar **What’s included** Your £25 covers your seat in the room and a drink at the citizenM Skybar after the programme. **First 30 in get a seat**

The Lost Entrepreneur Meetup

Wed, Sep 2, 5:00 PM

From The Lost Entrepreneur Meetup Group

You didn't lose your ambition. You lost alignment while building success. This is the first gathering of The Lost Entrepreneur — a high-trust community for founders and investors who are still building, and still quietly asking what it's all for. This isn't networking-as-usual. No pitching, no name-tag small talk, no "what do you do." Just an evening of honest conversation with a small group of people carrying the same questions. What to expect: a short framing of the five qualities that mark the journey back (curiosity, intelligence, wisdom, resilience, determination); structured one-to-one conversations on the things founders rarely say out loud; an open circle to share what surfaced; and a first look at the road to our Costa Rica immersion (1–4 December 2026, 24 founders, invitation only). Come as you are. Leave with a few real connections and a clearer sense of what you're actually building toward. Impact is mandatory. Ego is disqualifying. Spaces are limited so everyone can be heard — please only RSVP if you intend to come.

Frequently asked questions

Meetup is a platform that helps people discover and join groups based on shared interests, such as founder groups. It connects users with local communities to participate in events of mutual interest.

Yes, Meetup features various founder groups in London. You can explore groups that bring together entrepreneurs and founders to connect, share insights, and support each other in their business ventures.

To find business groups on Meetup, search using keywords like 'founder', 'entrepreneur', or 'business' along with the location 'London'. This will help you discover groups that match your interests effectively.

Absolutely, you can join as many Meetup groups as you like. Joining multiple founder groups lets you expand your network and learn from different communities in London.

To RSVP, sign into your Meetup account, find the event on the group's page, and click the RSVP button. You'll then receive updates about the event.

Joining Meetup is free, but some groups or events may charge a fee for participation. Check the event details to know if any costs are associated.

The meeting frequency varies by each founder group. Some may meet monthly, while others weekly. Review the group's page on Meetup for their usual schedule.

Yes, as a group member, you can suggest or host events. Engage with the group organizers to propose your event ideas and collaborate on planning.

Meetup connects people but does not guarantee business success. Forming networks and gaining insights through groups can aid in your journey but depends on individual participation.

Events can range from networking meetups, workshops, panel discussions, to pitch nights, all designed to foster collaboration and learning among founders.

Not all groups meet in person; some also conduct online events. This flexibility allows participation from a broader audience, depending on preferences.

To start a Meetup group, you'll need to create a Meetup organizer account, define your group focus, and promote your group to attract members. Meetup's resources can guide you further.

If you can't find a group that matches your interest, consider starting your own. You can create a new group around the specific topics you're passionate about.

Not all events require commitment; it varies by group and event. Some may encourage drop-ins while others seek a regular attendance for continuity.

Event quality can vary by organizer. Participating actively and providing feedback can help enhance your experience and the event quality over time.
