Speed Networking for Filmmakers

Join us and an assortment of other Film and TV professionals on Tuesday 29th September 2026 at MNM (a speakeasy beneath Brox Barbers on Fenchurch Street in London), for a high-energy night of speed networking with fellow industry creatives.

Instead of traditional mingling, this event will run as a structured speed networking session, where you’ll have just 3 minutes to chat with each person before moving on to the next. It’s a fast, focused way to meet a wide range of industry professionals in one evening — perfect for making introductions, sharing ideas, and sparking potential collaborations.

If you're looking to kickstart your film career this year, this is the perfect opportunity to expand your network and connect with like-minded individuals in a dynamic setting. Whether you're an actor, director, producer, writer, crew member, or otherwise, this event is for you.

Past attendees have included Cannes-selected filmmakers, development executives, casting directors, distributors, TV writers, Heads of Departments, and a whole host of other creatives working across the industry.

Please note: due to the structured format, you’ll meet a variety of attendees, but there is no guarantee of who you will be paired with. We encourage everyone to come prepared, be proactive, and make the most of each 3-minute conversation, as well as the free-for-all networking that will follow the main portion of the event.

This event is being hosted by The Developing Room, a multi-award winning British creative network committed to cultivating a safe space for emerging creatives to learn, grow, and mature as artists.
