About Lunch and Learn
Members Lunch and Learn is a series of peer-to-peer learning sessions that are scheduled over lunch time exclusive to StartSpace Members.
Each session will be delivered by a fellow founder and StartSpace member who has knowledge to share that may help you in your own venture. It’s designed to be a short session, where you can take a break and learn something new while eating your lunch (that you bring yourself) and have a chance to meet other founders.
These sessions are free to attend and are usually scheduled to run every 3rd Thursday of the month in 2025 from 12:30pm-1:30pm in StartSpace Ground Floor. It’s essential to book so we can effectively manage the attendance for each session.
Please note these events do not include catering.
You are welcome to bring along your lunch and eat it during the session.
