Politics is broken, over 40% of people didn't vote in the 2024 General election, more people than voted for the winning party. People are disillusioned, we don't trust our elected officials and often don't even believe the media to give us honest news. There is no easy solution to this, change must be bottom up from normal people and the first step is for normal people to be able to talk. Pub Politics is there to offer that first step, to talk uncensored, to find common ground with our neighbours who far more often share our views than either side of the political divide. If that ends at a good chat, thats fine but it is my hope that it opens the door for more. Information Source: Pub Politcs | eventbrite

Don't hang about if you want to join us - our Ipswich events are always busy! Powered Up Business Networking (PUBNetworking) is an “out of hours” networking event that does away with the usual networking formalities. You’ll get to learn about the people behind the business - without a torrent of sales pitches …and bland tea and coffee. And you’ll get to have a lot of laughs whilst you’re at it! As you know, the best business connections are the people you want to spend time with outside of work. They’re the people you can trust, and whose company you enjoy. PUBNetworking is the place to find them. We have a loose structure, relaxed atmosphere and the opportunity to learn from other business experts - with no strings attached. Just bring yourself, your e-ticket and your best smile and you’re good to go. Each event has four objectives… Meet awesome people We have a wide range of business people that attend. From start-ups to those with 30 years experience - across a wide range of industries. Everyone that attends is under no obligation to attend (we have no memberships, or contracts) so they’re there purely to meet people like you. Build long-lasting relationships We believe in a 'people buy from people' philosophy. In a relaxed environment, everyone feels comfortable and the connections you make are less forced, and more genuine. You’ll get to know each person in more detail - and have a good time doing so. Learn things without pitches Each event is productive and valuable. And we want everyone to walk away having learned something new. Our speakers offer genuine value, without sneaky sales pitches. We want you to take what you learn and use it to benefit your business. Have fun And above all, we want you to have fun. Sometimes that’s easier with a drink in your hand (it also makes the terrible jokes slightly more tolerable…). Our networking events are all about you, your passions and your business success. What’s happening this month? Our speaker for this event is copywriter extraordinaire - Lewis Folkard. His talk is called "How your customers (and you) really decide to buy" This talk will cover the natural way to remove 'decision-friction' and persuade more people to buy from you! Location Held at The Arcade Tavern, we have the upstairs function room all to ourselves. And a great selection of drinks too! Plan for the night: 7.30 - Meet, greet & network. Your chance to sign in, grab a drink and speak to anyone you’d like. 7.50 - Introduction from Milo. 7.55 - Your chance to tell the room about yourself with a PUBNetworking difference… 8.20 - 1-2-1 with someone you like. 8.35 - Grab a drink/have a break. 8.50 - Presentation from Lewis. 9.15 - Close the meeting and optional further networking. 9.30 - End/move downstairs into The Arcade Tavern to have a further drink should you wish.
