Join us for the July 2019 edition of Maker Monday, our monthly slice of inspiration from the creative and tech worlds.

We are delighted again to welcome two fantastic and insightul speakers from across the broad creative industries.

Michael de Groot works with small business owners to become better storytellers and share engaging stories about themselves and their businesses. Through his small business Staying Alive UK, Michael produces visually impactful cartoons and animation campaigns, engaging audiences and giving them a unique insight into an organisation’s story and value proposition.

For this month’s Maker Monday, Michael will be delivering an exciting workshop on podcasting. Podcasts are growing in the UK, with nearly 6 million adults now tuning in each week. Audio is less interruptive compared to video and can be absorbed on the move.

A regular podcaster himself, Michael will be sharing ideas, insights and tips on podcassting, how to get them started, distributed and posted.
