Women in IP coffee dates

Our Women in IP coffee dates are informal get-togethers; we’ll be organising them at various times and locations, depending on who’s around. Sometimes we’ll have a theme to kick-start the conversations, but there will be plenty of opportunities for a general chat and networking too.

Our last date was an informal lunchtime gathering on Tuesday 10 March 2020 at Leon, 29-30 High Holborn, WC1V 6AZ.

This was an alternative to our usual coffee mornings, to allow those with other obligations in the morning to attend. IP professionals were invited to drop by any time between 12.30 and 2 pm to grab some food, grab a seat, catch up with old contacts and meet new people.

As always, we had a topic for discussion, but we weren’t limited to this; there’s always time for general chat! To mark International Women’s Day, our topic was this year’s theme of “How will you help forge a gender equal world?”

Keep an eye out here for more dates, venues and themes in 2020.

If you have any questions about the coffee dates, please contact Emily Teesdale or Isobel Barry via [email protected]. And by the way, we need more volunteers to organise similar get-togethers around the country. Can you run one? If so, please email us.
