Ipswich Tech Drinkabout 🍻
It’s exactly what it sounds like — a relaxed meetup for anyone interested in tech, ideas, startups, or just chatting to interesting people over a drink. There’s no agenda, no speeches, no awkward intros — just good conversation and the chance to meet others in the local tech/creative/business scene.
You don’t have to work in tech — we like people who are curious, who build things (even if that’s in your bedroom), or who just fancy a decent chat about interesting stuff.
Toastmasters @Halo
Looking to improve your speaking skills, build confidence, or simply meet like-minded people? Join Toastmasters at Halo in Stowmarket.

Innovate Suffolk Hackathon 2025
Hackathon 2025
Green Tech | November 7–9 | Ipswich
One Sixth Form College
Hackathons aren’t just about coding — they’re about solving problems. They bring together people with different skills, ideas, and perspectives to work on challenges that need fresh thinking. Whether you’re technical or not, hackathons are where good ideas meet the right people to bring them to life.
For participants, it’s an amazing way to build confidence, grow your skills, and connect with others who are passionate about making things better. For businesses, it’s a way to tap into fresh ideas and meet potential future collaborators, hires, or partners. And for the community—it’s about showing what’s possible when we work together.
Some people come to hackathons with a specific idea to work on, others join to learn something new or be part of something creative. No two teams are the same, and no two hackathons are ever alike.
