The Little Black Book Event: Networking and Exhibition
28 April 2025 at Resource for London
About the event
We are excited to introduce you to our newest face-to-face event; The Little Black Book Event: Networking and Exhibition.
Our Little Black Book Event will be a showcase of valued suppliers, combined with an opportunity for our members, and the wider charity and NFP sector, to network, make new contacts, speak with carefully selected sector specialists and fill their little black books (provided on arrival!) with the contacts they need, both now and in the future.
A little black book is famously a symbol for a personal collection of valuable contacts, generally used for networking or social purposes. Before smartphones, it was a physical notebook used to jot down names, contact details and notes about important connections. It’s a tangible reminder of the importance of maintaining relationships and the power of a well-connected network. Whether for professional networking, social engagements, or personal connections, a little black book signifies the value placed on human interactions and the benefits of having a reliable network of contacts.
Join us at Resource for London on Monday 28 April for our first annual Little Black Book event. Our keynote speaker will be the incredible Frankie Kemp, who will start the event with a lively and interactive session all about demystifying the art of networking, or ‘meeting people’ and helping us all find our own connecting style.
With ad hoc ‘fireside chats’ and Q&A sessions delivered by exhibitors and the CITL team, this promises to be a fantastic event.
For delegates
Everyone benefits from having a fantastic professional network. We all need a group of peers who 'get it', and suppliers we can trust and rely on.
With your Little Black Book and pen in hand (supplied as you check-in), you'll be able to capture all those important contact details and the background info that makes it easier to maintain effective peer and supplier networks.
This event is free of charge to Charity IT Leaders members.
Tickets cost £45 for non-members, and discounts are available for purchases of two or more tickets.
