Our fringe events offer a fantastic opportunity to get involved and add to the vibrancy and diversity of the Cambridge Tech Week programme.
These sessions can deliver big impact for your business by offering access to new audiences, new clients and future collaborators. Connecting through shared interests, our fringe events help to build meaningful relationships and generate new business opportunities.
Fringe event hosts are able to build their own bespoke session, enjoy the creative freedom to deliver something that will really stand out from the crowd. We recommend choosing an interesting venue and creating unique content to maximize engagement. And remember you can ‘buddy up’ with other organisations to spread the cost of hosting an event and add knowledge and expertise.
Ideas for your fringe event could include:
- A deep dive into new areas of tech/product demos
- A hands-on workshop/tutorial
- High profile guests to participate in discussions and Q&A’s
- Collaborate with other businesses to deliver a dynamic, multi-layered event
- Networking event for a special interest group
Among our stand-out fringe events that took place last year were:
- Driving Black Talent in STEM at an exclusive round-table event at Homerton College with Lord Simon Woolley
- ‘She Speaks Business’ event at Mills & Reeve with pioneering tech entrepreneurs
- STEM tots event to engage young minds creatively at a PopUpScience centre
