Design Engineering Nights are a home to: 1. Share your own journeys (we know there's no straight path to be a design engineer) 2. Shine the spotlight on what the best design engineers do 3. Get the lowdown on how to get the best out of your tools, workflows, etc.FuckUp Nights London #1 - September 2025Wednesday, 10 September @ 6:30 pm • Register to See Address, Central London FuckUp Nights London is finally back...

Inclusion as a Product Strategy: Using Your Influence for Meaningful ImpactThursday, 11 September @ 6:00 pm • 120 Aldersgate St, Barbican Great product leaders don't just ship features. They change lives. They think about who is being left out, so they can serve them more fully and fairly. Inclusion isn't a nice-to-have. It's a competitive advantage and a product strategy that drives better outcomes for users, teams, and businesses alike. Join us to discover how to turn your product influence into a catalyst for inclusive innovation, and why this matters now more than ever. This isn't a sit-back-and-zone-out session. Expect an energising, interactive experience designed to sharpen your thinking and expand your impact as a product leader.Beyond Context Limits: Building Enterprise-Grade AISunday, 14 September @ 11:00 am • Register to See Address, Central London Cohere, Expedite, Oxbridge AI X and Earlybird are excited to bring together builders for a hackathon focused on building with Cohere's leading retrieval models.

Welcome to Raise Your Profyle, a weekly round up of business and networking events in London brought to you by profylecard.comHey there, London networkers! Welcome to Raise Your Profile, your essential guide to navigating the city's vibrant business event scene. I'm Chris, co-founder of profylecard.com, where we're all about empowering you to make meaningful connections.We believe networking is more than just collecting business cards – it's about building strategic relationships that fuel your career and business growth.Want to upgrade your networking game? Snag 20% off Profyle Card by just mentioning the podcast when placing your order.This week, we've curated a selection of hand-picked events designed to help you expand your network, enhance your brand, and achieve your professional goals. So, get ready to discover the best opportunities London has to offer.Just before we jump into this week's events, I want to share a couple of quick tips for making the most of those first encounters. Because let's face it, meeting someone new can be a little nerve-wracking, but it's also a huge opportunity.* Focus on genuine curiosity. People can spot a fake a mile away. Instead of just thinking about what you want to say, ask genuine questions about them. What are they working on? What are they passionate about? How can you help them? Active listening not only helps you learn about the other person, but it also makes them feel valued, which is key to building a strong connection.* Have a concise and compelling "elevator pitch" ready. This isn't about reciting your resume; it's about succinctly explaining what you do and why it matters. Think of it as a mini-story that captures their interest and makes them want to learn more. Practice it beforehand so it sounds natural and conversational, not robotic.These little things can make a big difference in how you're perceived. Now, with those tips in mind, let's dive into this week's top events!Events🧑‍💼 Business networking at Hay Hill Private Members ClubMonday 10th @ 6.30pm • 12 Hay Hill, MayfairHosted by The London ConnectorSet in a stunning six-story building at Berkeley Square, Hay Hill is unique as it combines the luxury of a private members club with the business focus of a co-working environment, pioneering the concept of the club working, all in the heart of Mayfair.💰 Business Networking Event in London, Startups, Entrepreneurs, InvestorsTuesday 11th @ 6pm • Sierra Quebec Bravo, Canary WharfHosted by By Getshop TodayJoin our business networking event in London, Canary Wharf!
