We’re looking forward to tomorrow night’s dinner at The Green, Clerkenwell.

We’ll enjoy dinner, drinks & a chance to meet fellow entrepreneurs, followed by an after-dinner talk and informal Q&A with Danny Meaney. The topic of conversation for the evening is what he looks for when he invests in a startup or buys an existing business. Take the chance to dine with Danny and talk to him one on one about your business.

Danny is a serial entrepreneur and investor in early stage techmedia businesses. He is well connected with a track record of helping digital media and technology businesses create shareholder value.

He was CEO in a ground-breaking online B2C download channel joint venture with Nokia. SideloaderTV was one of the first experiments in the delivery of short-form content across a mobile platform.

He is recognised as a global expert in the business of creative placemaking and led New Media Partners’ work on MediaCityUK, Twofour54 in Abu Dhabi, Pacific Quay in Glasgow, Creative London, Bristol’s Harbourside, London’s Olympic Park and White City, Corridor Manchester, The Sharp Project, Digital City in Teesside, Titanic Quarter in Belfast, Jeddah’s KAEC, Dubai’s Internet City, Brisbane’s Creative Precinct and Singapore’s Mediapolis.
