Panel Talk + Networking: Thursday 5th March, 6 - 8pm

£12.00

Episode 4 of our Happy Freelancers x Platf9rm Panel Series

Join us for an insightful panel talk, followed by networking with Brighton’s freelancers and founders.

From Freelancer to Founder

Freelancing often starts with freedom.
Doing great work. Choosing your clients. Backing yourself.

But at some point, many freelancers start to wonder:
What would this look like if I treated it like a business… not just my work?

“From Freelancer to Founder” is an honest, energising panel conversation for freelancers and new founders who are curious about growing with more intention.

This isn’t about hustle culture or overnight scaling.
It’s about building something sustainable, strategic, and bigger than just your own time.

We’ll be talking about:

• Adopting a founder mindset, even as a solo freelancer
• Operating like a business, not just a personal brand
• When it makes sense to outsource and bring in support
• Investing in people, skills, and systems that unlock growth
• Exploring grants and funding opportunities
• Creating structure that supports freedom, not replaces it

Whether you’re fully booked and feeling stretched, or just starting to see potential beyond client work, this panel is designed to help you think differently about what you’re building.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.
You just have to be open to the next level of thinking.

If you’ve ever felt that quiet nudge to build something more intentional, more scalable, more future-focused, this conversation is for you.

Hosted at: Platf9rm, Brighton (Tower Point)
