SUMMARY:Serendipity Table
DESCRIPTION:What if your next breakthrough came from a conversation with a stranger? \nThe Serendipity Table is an invitation to sit down\, slow down\, and talk – with someone you’ve never met. Or it’s an opportunity for a deeper conversation with an existing connection. Inspired by David Cleevely’s book Serendipity\, which explores how seemingly random connections are shaped by weak ties and the right environment\, the Table is a simple experiment in engineering those conditions here at The Glasshouse. \nThis isn’t networking. There’s no pitch\, no agenda\, no business cards required. Just a seat at a table\, willing conversationalists\, and whatever happens next. \nThe Serendipity Table is a collaboration with CAMentrepreneurs. Each Friday\, book one of the hourly slots and pull up a chair – up to four places are available per hour. There are no rules\, only curiosity. \nWho will you meet? \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Product vs Promise: Exploring the complex tension between real and imaginary in the age of investment hype.
DESCRIPTION:Fifty years ago\, the path from idea to global company was simple: build\, sell\, scale. Today\, social reach alone can attract millions before a product ships\, but has anything really changed? \nThis event traces the historical swing between production-led and promise-led investment\, from the Bank of England to the Industrial Revolution\, and unpacks what it means for funding deep tech and AI today. Through talks and a concluding panel\, hear from inventors\, influencers and investors on what it really takes to secure funding now. It’s an essential session for entrepreneurs\, investors and business leaders at any stage of the funding journey.
