The Northampton Marketing Meetup is an informal friendly place to meet, learn and share knowledge with one another. Come in 'listen' mode :) The Northampton Marketing Meetup is an informal, friendly place for the marketers of Northants to meet, learn, and share knowledge with one another. Come in 'listen' not 'sell' mode :) We're heading back to the lovely Vulcan Works for this one, and we just want to get together, say hello, have a chat, and have a nice time. Think of this as a community event, where the focus is very much on you meeting other people in a chilled out friendly space. We’ll chat over food and drink, listen to an inspirational speaker or two, chat some more, and go home buzzing with new contacts and new ideas.
