MeejaHub is a business and social networking group that aims to bring creative and media professionals together to exchange ideas, sources, industry news and gossip - over a drink, preferably, or via this website.
Membership is open to all - marketing managers in the corporate world, creative agency employees, illustrators, writers, graphic designers, journalists, web developers, media consultants, copywriters, photographers, camera operators, film producers, cartoonists, viral marketeers and others.
Whether in full-time employment, freelance, retired, re-evaluating or graduating, MeejaHub is for anyone who has a background, present or future in the world of media - whether that’s print or digital. The media world is fast-moving and people within it rarely stay in the same job for long. With this in mind, MeejaHub focuses on individuals not companies.
Not for profit and supported by its members
MeejaHub is a not-for-profit organisation that exists solely for the benefit of its members. Contributions are asked from members and guests to offset the cost of maintaining the website, hosting events at great venues, including wine and canapes.
No charges to join
Subject to profile approval, anyone can join the MeejaHub site without charge and network online with fellow creatives. All members are encouraged to attend the events; where professional relationships and friendships develop. Those who aren’t sure if they wish to take out full premium membership or want to try out an event before joining are asked to donate £10 to the honesty box on the night, to cover costs.
Premium subscription
The payment of the annual subscription of just £120 for premium membership entitles entry to all offline meetings, subsidised rates for special events and selected discounts on products and services from local businesses. Members will be invoiced on joining; payment can be made by cheque or transfer.
What happens at events
Events take place on a monthly basis at the Hotel du Vin, Tunbridge Wells. New members and guests are always made welcome. The ego-free group is friendly, chatty, interested and interesting. There’s no real format other than grab a drink and join in the conversation, which can be varied - to say the least.
Mutually supportive
Part of the ethos behind MeejaHub is mutual support. Many members recommend contacts to each other if they feel there could be some benefit to one or other or both parties. Some ‘Hubbers’ have joined forces on projects, with successful results. It’s a great place - for example - for agencies to find freelance talent.
MeejaHub is a social forum first and foremost. The organisers will not tolerate any members or guests who are felt to be acting against the group’s ethos. All members are treated with respect and courtesy.
