Startup Events in Nottingham
Building something from nothing is hard, and there's no better way to learn than from people who've done it. Our startup events bring together founders, entrepreneurs, and aspiring business builders to share real stories—the wins, the failures, and everything in between.
About Startup Events in Nottingham
The startup world is full of glamourised success stories, but the reality is messier and more interesting. COLLECTIVE. startup events bring you honest conversations with founders who share what it's really like to build a business. No pitch competitions, no investor panels—just real talk from real entrepreneurs.
Our Nottingham events bring you talks from people doing interesting work, explained in ways everyone can understand. You'll gain insights into how technology and creativity shape our world, meet welcoming people from diverse backgrounds, and leave feeling inspired. No jargon, no gatekeeping—just a community of curious people learning together.
Who It's For
Anyone interested in entrepreneurship. Current founders looking for community and peer support, aspiring entrepreneurs exploring ideas, freelancers considering productising their services, employees thinking about making the leap, and people who are simply curious about what it takes to build something from scratch.
What to Expect
Honest, unfiltered stories from founders at various stages of their journey. Hear about the decisions that worked, the mistakes that taught valuable lessons, and the realities of entrepreneurship that don't make it into the LinkedIn posts. Plus plenty of time to connect with others on similar paths.
