Events & Community

I built my career on getting people in a room together — buyers, founders, and the brands trying to reach them. So alongside the client work, I run and sponsor events for independent food and drink brands across Norfolk and beyond.

The Brand Brunch

A few times a year I bring together founders, marketers and operators from the region's food and drink brands for The Brand Brunch — coffee, bacon rolls, and an hour of properly useful conversation about growth, subscriptions, and what's actually working right now.

Past sessions have included a fireside chat with One Planet Pizza on building a challenger brand from a kitchen table to national retail; Paddy & Scott's on making the right calls for the business; Farmyard Frozen on running a direct-to-consumer brand alongside a Michelin Guide restaurant; and Ampersand Brewing on building community. Most recently, the founders of BRICK, Weaver's Arms, Yard and Tallow told us about their new venture, Birch — Norwich's newly opened record-lounge restaurant.

Latitude Festival: Theatre of Food

I've sponsored and spoken at Latitude Festival's Theatre of Food, sharing a stage with independent food and drink brands in front of a festival crowd — proper hands-on marketing, not just a logo on a banner.

Dreamland eCommerce Conference

I'm a proud sponsor of Dreamland, the eCommerce conference held in Shoreditch, London, supporting the drinks on the night and getting stuck into an incredible day of talks and conversations with brands and operators across the industry.

Mailchimp Connect London

As a Mailchimp Pro Partner, I recently spoke at Mailchimp Connect in London, sharing what actually moves the needle on email marketing for food and drink brands.
