Business and networking events • 22nd - 29th 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 #39 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 London's autumn settles in, the city's professional networks are heating up with a diverse week of industry gatherings. The tech community is especially active, with events spanning AI-powered consumer hardware to data engineering, while marketing professionals grapple with AI's impact on brand building and venture capitalists examine how artificial intelligence reshapes investment strategies.
What makes this week interesting is how it reflects London's ability to host conversations across wildly different sectors - from software engineers and property investors to health data specialists and alternative banking solutions. It's the kind of week where crossing industries might just spark your next big idea.
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.
