Thursday 16th June saw the return of Meetdraw to the UK’s South Coast, now up to it’s 10th event. Meetdraw is an opportunity for creative, digital and progressive thinkers from all industries to come together, share ideas, trade business cards and enjoy a few drinks – a completely free, not-for-profit networking event for people that don’t like networking events.
Meetdraw 10: the pool party took place at Bournemouth’s swanky Cumberland Hotel and was proudly sponsored by Cardstream. The funding went towards the official lanyards and registration created by 2 members of the meetdraw committee assigned to organising the event.
Of 210 registered to attend, final attendance was around 130 people which was a superb turnout and one of the most well attended meetdraw events yet.
One of the organisers, Tom Wittlin said “We’re really pleased this many people came, if the full 200 had turned up we’d probably run out of space (or beer!). Big thanks to Cardstream for their support, many of the people here tonight commented on how professional it looked, with the aid of just a bit of sponsorship money [and hard work!] it’s quite amazing what you can achieve.”
Adam Sharpe from Cardstream added “We are eager to interact with web designers, developers and in-fact everyone related with the web industry as much as possible. Without the strong referral client base we continue to build upon, we wouldn’t be in the position we are today. We are continually developing the system to be easy to integrate with and also offer the referrer advantages for using Cardstream. We look forward to joining Tom and his team at the next Meetdraw event!”
