2025 Week #38 - Your Invitation to London's Top Networking
Business and networking events • 15th - 21st September 2025
Welcome to Raise Your Profyle, a weekly round up of business and networking events in London brought to you by profylecard.com
Hello, and a very good morning! Welcome to Week #38 of Raise Your Profyle. I’m Chris, co-founder of Profyle Card, and I’ve been on the hunt to find you the most interesting business and networking events happening in London over the next 7 days.
As September's autumn feel starts to creep through London's streets, the city's tech and business communities are warming up for what might be the most eclectic week of networking events this quarter. From brain-computer interfaces to blockchain treasuries, sustainable business practices to speed dating for founders, this week offers a fascinating cross-section of where innovation meets opportunity in the capital.
Tuesday kicks off with dual explorations of the future - whether you're interested in empowering the next generation of operators at Antler or diving deep into neurotech breakthroughs. Wednesday brings an interesting mix of data engineering insights, China watchers gathering for casual drinks, and high-end fintech conversations at one of London's most prestigious hotels. The week builds to Thursday's crescendo with fashion week creators, founder speed networking, and a deep dive into how tokenized finance is reshaping global capital markets. There's even a sustainability meetup for those looking to connect purpose with profit in a more relaxed pub setting.
It's the kind of week where you could easily bounce from discussing the future of brain-computer interfaces to tokenized assets, all while making connections that span industries, disciplines, and continents.
And as always, to power your networking success, Profyle is offering a 20% discount off your first order when you mention the podcast. It's the smart, digital solution for connecting and thriving in today's fast-paced world.
So, let’s dive into this week’s events…
