Who We Are
Hive Collective supports freelance creatives and independent businesses in Waltham Forest, helping you connect with and get to know other businesses right on your doorstep.
We create opportunities to meet, learn from and collaborate with fellow business owners, championing partnerships that help you thrive.
Being part of a supportive community can make all the difference to your confidence, motivation and success.
Come along to our fun, inclusive events and connect with others, collaborate and see where the new connections can take you and your business.
What We Do
We put on speaker and networking events in Waltham Forest that are fun,
informative and perfect for making new connections.
We’ve got everything from one-to-one business coaching and group sessions programmes
to workshops on business goals and social media marketing.
Plus, our casual social drinks are a great way to unwind and chat. While the timing of our events depends on funding and sponsorship, we're always working to bring as much value to our community as possible.
Speaker and Community Events
We invite inspiring creatives, freelancers and business founders to join us for a relaxed conversation, often followed by an open Q&A. Our guests share their successes, failures and the lessons they wish they’d known when starting out.
Expect honest, open chats, and we often include a ‘How To’ section where an expert shares 10 fantastic tips to help us master key business skills.
There’s always plenty of time to network, meet new people and get to know more of the creatives and entrepreneurs in the borough, all while enjoying drinks and nibbles.
