​Why founders keep coming back

​Hull's got no shortage of "networking" - structured referral meetings where you're there to extract introductions, breakfast events where you sit through speeches before anyone actually talks to you, speed-rounds where you're expected to have your elevator pitch ready. This is different. No membership quotas, no one-seat-per-industry rules, no pitching, no referral targets. Just a small room where you can actually talk to everyone in it, and a strict "no pitching" policy that means every conversation starts as a conversation, not a sales pitch.
