Events can be a powerful tool to foster connections, facilitate the exchange of ideas and find inspiration in your niche. Often there is a gap in an industry where professionals have a need to connect and learn from others. This is what Kim identified when setting up the Legal BD Futures Forum. She joins us on our podcast to share how she founded her own industry event series and grew it from a post on LinkedIn to a network of over 100 members.

In this episode she shares the ins and outs of planning the event and building a positive community such as marketing an event using LinkedIn, working with a limited budget, putting yourself out there and overcoming the fear of nobody showing up, finding speakers for your industry event, and utilising attendee feedback.

Get in touch - we'd love to hear what you think of our podcast!

Hope you enjoy this episode!
