Join us for our monthly networking event at SETsquared Bath, held from 08:30 to 10:00 at the Innovation Centre. Each month, we explore topics like entrepreneurship, funding, new technologies, and strategies for growing a business. Plus, stay updated on what’s happening in our community! Shoutouts about upcoming events and news are always welcome.

Start your morning with a pastry and coffee from 8:30 am and connect with Bath’s vibrant business community. The main session kicks off at 9:00 am.

Most founders think growth is blocked by strategy, operations or hiring.

But more often, it’s blocked by something far less tangible: emotional friction.

Join Sarah Dena, founder of The Culturevators and host of The Culturevating Leader Podcast, for an interactive networking experience using the Emotional Culture Deck. This isn’t small talk and business cards - it’s real connection and conversation that will inspire you to feel and think with more clarity, by the end of it.

Together, we’ll explore:

• how people in founder-shaped businesses actually feel going into 2026

• the hidden emotions that shape trust and performance for growth

• how emotional clarity becomes the catalyst for scale

• what leaders can do differently by naming what’s really going on

You’ll walk away with deeper self-awareness, fresh insight, and one practical conversation to take back into your business or future venture.

Who this session is for

• Founders & co-founders

• SME leaders

• Creatives & tech innovators

• Students exploring entrepreneurship

• Anyone curious about how emotions impact culture, leadership & performance

What participants will get

• A guided networking experience (not the awkward kind)

• Emotional clarity around their current work reality

• A chance to connect in meaningful, energising conversations

• A better understanding of what truly drives performance

• A takeaway conversation prompt they can use immediately
