So what’s the twist?

Ever been speed dating? No? Neither have we…but the format still works! All mentees at this event will get the chance to speak to three different speed mentors, rotating every 10 minutes, with breaks in between to regroup.

You can be emerging at any age, so there’s no age limit on this event. If you have less than two years of industry experience, you can get involved!

Spaces are limited, so don’t hang about. Applications will close on XXX 11pm GMT.
