About this Event

Networking: Essential Skills for the Creative Industries

It is often said that 'your network is your net worth,' and networking can be a big challenge, especially if you're starting a creative career with no industry contacts. If this resonates then join Ade Bamgbala, an award-winning freelance Creative Producer, who'll teach you how to find your network, present yourself authentically, and help you overcome the fear of rejection. The session promises to be a relaxed and welcoming space where everyone will have something to contribute. You might leave with a new creative partner, a fresh perspective on your own skills or simply the confidence to reach out to people more often. Bring your curiosity, be yourself and learn how to master the art of networking.


Ade Bamgbala (FHEA) is an award-winning freelance Creative Producer who's worked for Google, BBC Sounds, and The Economist, to name but a few, producing multimedia content for diverse audiences. In addition, he lectures on the creative, media, and entrepreneurship courses at the London College of Communication, ensuring students are thoroughly equipped with the skills and knowledge to enter the creative industries successfully.
