About the Toolbox Industrial Networking Night

About The Toolbox

The Toolbox Industrial Networking Night is a relaxed, no-nonsense networking event for professionals working in construction, engineering, manufacturing and the broader industrial sector.

It was created to bring together good people from across the industry for genuine conversations, useful insights and the occasional cheeky bevvy.

Why we started it

After years of attending networking events that felt overly formal, sales-driven or simply not relevant to the industrial sector, we decided to create something different.

The Toolbox is about connecting the people who build, supply, design and support our industries — in a setting that feels relaxed, welcoming and genuinely useful.

Hosted by Doreen Francois
