Brighton Dynamic & The Skiff Update (Not just from Jon)

Published 11 months agoย โ€ขย 2 min read

Brighton Dynamic

from The Skiffโ€‹

You might be used to getting these from Jon/Jonathan/@jot Markwell.

Like The Skiff, Brighton Dynamic is a team effort. So we have a new dedicated email address. To ensure you don't miss out please add it to your address book: brightdyn@theskiff.org

You are going to love the next eight editions we've been working on.

  • You'll hear how 8 people Caroline Beavon has interviewed are working smarter in Brighton and Sussex.
  • You'll discover how 8 companies with local roots (researched by Jon) are quietly making a big difference to customers around the world.
  • You'll get our usual round up of the best events to meet creative, technical & business folk in the area - curated by Paul Silver.

Hopefully they'll make up for our unexpected radio silence over the last few weeks.

Update for Skiffmates:

Next Wednesday is going to be a great day at The Skiff:

Three Year Plan

The last three years have been our most challenging.

We've survived and this month we're hitting some nice milestones in our recovery. The Skiff and its community feel very similar to how it was when we were of a similar size back in 2015. Now it's time to look forward.

The lease on our current space runs until November 2026.

How can we make The Skiff better (not bigger) over the next three years?

Every reply we get makes a difference!

If you like what you read from us, let us know and we'll see if we can power through to 50 editions of Brighton Dynamic. And do send us your tips - which people, companies and events do you think 2,000+ people like you would like to hear about?

Looking forward to sharing what we've been working on,

Jon, Caroline & Paul

PS If you're considering (re)joining The Skiff in June hit reply to let us know. We rarely do discounts for The Skiff but we're about to launch a limited promotion - if you read this far you can get the details in advance. ๐Ÿš€

Brighton Dynamic from The Skiff Yesterday was the 17th birthday of the company that became The Skiff Ltd's. It took ~2.5 years before the company opened a coworking space so we get to have two birthdays a year. By many measures, the last month has been the best we've had since before the pandemic. The space is buzzing with members new and old. The best thing this week was hearing a member, who joined less than a year ago, say this to a member who joined in 2016: "Yes we pay and have a...
