September Mingle

No panels. No forced networking. No awkward icebreakers. Just a room full of founders, operators, investors, entrepreneurs and curious people working on, or looking for, interesting things. 👋 What is Silicon Mingle? Think of it as the monthly meeting point for the North East's startup and tech community. Come along to meet people building companies, launching products, investing in startups, joining growing teams, exploring new ideas or simply looking to spend time around ambitious people. The atmosphere is informal. Come on your own or bring someone with you. There’s no need for an agenda or an elevator pitch — just turn up, start a conversation and see where it goes. 🤝 Who will you meet? Expect a mix of: Startup founders and entrepreneurs Engineers, product people and other tech professionals Operators from startups and scaleups Angel investors, VCs and people working in the investment ecosystem Creatives, advisors and ecosystem builders People exploring their next company, project or opportunity You don't need to be running a startup or even working directly in tech to join us. Curiosity, good energy and a willingness to meet new people are enough. Whether you're building a company, looking for a co-founder, exploring an idea, meeting potential collaborators, discovering your next opportunity or simply expanding your circle, you'll be in good company. 📍 This Month’s Mingle Date: Wednesday, 30 September Time: From 6pm Location: Bealim House, 17–25 Gallowgate, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4SG Secure your ticket, show up and come mingle.
