Past attendees of the UKTI GDC programme Jason Kingsley, Rebellion said: “I found the lunches were a very useful place to revisit and build on business acquaintances and meet new, high powered individuals in an informal setting for an extended period of time.  Getting more than a few minutes with some of these people is difficult at the best of times.  Sharing lunch with them is priceless.”
