Hub8 Connect

20th January 2026 | 12:00 - 18:30

A full day of networking and collaboration, bringing together founders in the tech community at Hub8 MX in Cheltenham. Saj Huq, CCO of Plexal, leads an open discussion with active Q&A – exploring collective readiness.

​With wider community networking sessions throughout the day, including lunch and evening drinks, this is your chance to connect with like-minded people in the local ecosystem.

​Whether you’re scaling internationally, navigating founder challenges, or simply looking to build meaningful relationships with some of the UK’s most innovative tech founders, come along and be part of the conversation.

Hot desks are available all day for those who want to work from Hub8 MX. Make the most of the space between sessions, catch up on emails or take calls whilst integrating with the Hub8 community.

Growth Clinics

​The Growth Partnership team will be running free Growth Clinics on the day! These expert-led, one-hour sessions are designed for scaleups and SMEs already generating revenue to tackle their biggest growth challenges with actionable clarity.

​Ideal for companies with year-on-year growth in team size, revenue, or customer base, and preferable alignment with social impact themes. Spots are limited – register here.
