Following on attending a recent Knowledge Café at Arup, last Thursday I took part in a meeting with the London Information and Knowledge Exchange (LIKE). Usually their meetings are in a pub in Bloomsbury but on this occasion it was a 2 hour conducted tour of The City plus some eating/networking at the end (in what was originally London’s first coffee house, the Jamaica Wine House).
It was a very enjoyable get-together, everyone very friendly and welcoming and a guide that was both informative and entertaining (in my experience you don’t always get the two characteristics together).
It made be realise (once again) how much there is to learn and appreciate even in quite small parts of major cities!
The LIKE website gives details of forthcoming events as well as some very insightful ‘hints and tips‘ on setting up a similar networking group.
