If you’re thinking about starting your own business or going freelance and would like to meet with other like-minded entrepreneurs, I have news of an event for you.
This Friday, 5 June, The Smart Upstart club invites you to its launch at the Institute of Directors in London.
This is just one of the opportunities coming up over the next 10 days. Read full information about The Smart Upstart club via my recent blog post.
Here’s my regular look at what’s going on in the world of comms, so you can plan your diaries from 31 May to 10 June 2015 and keep updated.
I publish What’s on this week every Sunday. If you have something to be considered for future ones, please get in touch.
