InvestSefton is inviting local Digital, Creative & Tech (DCT) businesses to attend the next, free Sefton Huddle between 12noon and 2pm on Wednesday 8th July 2026, at Eastbank in Southport town centre.

Sefton Huddle is a thriving networking event designed to bring together innovators, entrepreneurs and professionals from across the borough. It has quickly grown into a key fixture for the local DCT community, regularly attracting around 40 businesses at each session.

July’s event will provide a relaxed and welcoming environment for businesses to make valuable connections, share ideas, and explore opportunities to collaborate. A highlight of this session will be a guest presentation from Gather LCR, which is part of the Liverpool City Region Metro Mayor’s Business Growth Package.

Gather will introduce their upcoming programme of fully funded support for digital, creative and tech businesses and opportunities for organisations looking to grow and innovate.
