Details:

After the success launching this network in November last year, we decided to hold our second event in Cambridge, directed specifically at one of the most pressing questions that young entrepreneurs have that otherwise might prevent them entering this vibrant field. In the model of the successful Career Evenings that we run with our Law Society and Financial and Investment Services Society, this event will be an opportunity for students to engage with this topic, develop their skills, and build connections to other passionate individuals within Cambridge.

We welcome alumni to attend – not only to provide their insights for current students, but also to take advantage of the experience of our panel and the opportunity to network with other Robinsonians in an informal and relaxed setting.

Please book below before Monday 4 March 2024.

Our thanks to Cambridge Innovation Capital for sponsoring this event.
