Thank you from all of us on the Hot Source organising team for supporting the “Crowdfunding and brand building” talkie on Thursday 12 March.

It was a packed event in NUA’s Media Lab with over 65 people, including one local MP. We are especially grateful to our three excellent speakers, Joy Haynes, Ruth Anslow and Simon Middleton, for giving up their time to be with us (and to Simon for the free beer).

Thank you to Catherine Hill at NUA for logistical support and to Sarah Steed and John Last at NUA for providing the venue - and the wine. Thank you also to Paul Grenyer for this excellent review of the evening.

Your Hot Source organising team has started planning now for our next talkie on Thursday 11 June. We are particularly keen to get your feedback on the first talkie and hear your ideas for future events.

Please help us by completing our short and simple survey - because we can’t do this alone. Please also share with your social media network.

Thank you

Caroline, Huw, Guy, Niall, Wayne and Matt.
