⌖ Edinburgh · Jamaica Yard

Hosted by Founders Coffee Club

Founders Coffee Club brings relaxed, pitch-free founder networking and a day of coworking to Jamaica Yard in Edinburgh on 12 November 2026. Built around a simple promise, no speeches, no presentations and no selling, this in-person meetup gives founders space to have genuine conversations without sitting through formal talks or navigating sales pitches. Turn up, grab a coffee and meet other people building businesses across Edinburgh’s founder community. What to expect The scheduled networking session runs from 10:00am to 11:00am GMT at Jamaica Yard, 3 Jamaica Street, Edinburgh EH3 6HH. The event also includes coworking for the day, so attendees can continue working from the venue after the morning meetup rather than heading straight back to the office or working alone. There is no speaker programme or prescribed agenda. Instead, the format centres on informal, founder-to-founder networking: - Meet other founders over coffee - Exchange experiences in a sales-free setting - Build local connections without formal presentations - Stay for coworking during the rest of the day This is a founders-only event. It is particularly welcoming to people who find traditional networking daunting or who are attending Founders Coffee Club for the first time. The hosts say newcomers will be greeted on arrival and introduced to someone immediately, helping conversations start naturally rather than leaving attendees to work the room alone. Tickets and organiser Tickets cost £15, and registration is subject to host approval. The meetup is presented by Founders Coffee Club, which hosts networking events for founders across the UK. You can also follow the organiser on Instagram or LinkedIn. The Edinburgh gathering forms part of a recurring series held on the second Thursday of each month, offering founders a regular opportunity to reconnect, meet new peers and spend a productive day working alongside others.
