London Founder & Tech Connect: Upgrade Your Environment
Overview
London Founder & Tech Connect: Upgrade Your Environment
Are you building, moving, or growing in London's hyper-competitive startup scene?
Your environment is everything - and if you’ve felt the friction of building a business or starting a new chapter without a strong local network, this is your chance to change that.
This is a free-form gathering designed specifically for founders, engineers, and ambitious professionals who value authentic connection over rigid networking rules. I am creating a welcoming space to share experiences, swap lessons learned from the startup trenches, and find the supportive energy you need to thrive.
No pitches, no pressure - just passionate people. I only ask that you bring respect, energy, and genuine interest in the journeys of others.
Hosted by Jackie Prokopets:
I'm Jackie, a founder and software engineer who moved to London six years ago and has spent a decade in the industry, from Meta to my own projects. I know what it’s like to build connections from the ground up! I'm here to listen to your stories, share my own, and facilitate a great discussion. My interests are broad - from martial arts to the challenge of learning new languages - so bring your unique passions to the table!
Come connect, grow, and forge the network that will become your new environment.
