Another strong turnout for CS Gathering - this time in the prominent Frem Showroom on Clerkenwell Rd.
Big thanks to our generous host - Frem Group, Richard, Stephen and their team.
As usual, we began with a host introduction with Stephen discussing Frem history and new Italian alliances and Richard providing tours of the showroom.
Jeremy welcomed new CS Members who introduced themselves to the group. He also touched on fast-growing CS Share and CS Recruit Services.
With Clerkenwell Design Week just around the corner, Jeremy reminded the group to use their CS Membership resources such as; Yellow Flags (for those not using pink flags) and CS Whats App for last-minute suppliers and services.
The main event for this CS Gathering was to hear more about London Design Festival (LDF) the big Design event in September.
Our guest speaker, Lucy from LDF provided an overview of the show’s history and the wide range of activities expected for this year.
Jeremy added to LDF story with news that LDF and CS are collaborating to enable the creation of ‘Clerkenwell Showrooms District’ as the future ‘home’ for UK Design Students.
The final Q&A confirmed that most of the showrooms were in support of the CS/LDF collaboration with much discussion given to how each showroom may play a part supporting their local Universities.
”Clerkenwell Showrooms are beginning to see the power of Community and especially when we take United Action how we can raise the profile of the District - for the benefit of all” - Jeremy
So until the next…
