Digital Bristol is a community for like-minded people to keep up with the dynamic digital landscape, meet, network, learn, and share. The network is open to anyone but is primarily targeted at those in Bristol and the surrounding areas.

Based on and inspired by Digital Surrey which started life as the Surrey Tweetup community- established by thebluedoor in December 2009; The Digital Bristol community aims to create and drive opportunity – through sector-leading knowledge, diverse connections and a friendly collaborative approach.

Digital Bristol will organise and facilitate free monthly networking events with stand-out speakers, attracting the best digital knowledge, expertise and businesses in the region.

Digital Bristol is designed to be as inclusive as possible to involve everyone in the business community who has an interest in digital: PR, advertising, SEO, PPC, journalism, marketing, design, web architecture etc.
