Hot Source

A little-known feather in the cap of Norfolk Network is sparking the creation of another networking group.

The Hot Source Team:
Tom Wood (Foolproof), Nania Tait (Special Design Studio) & Jake Hithersay (Soak Digital)

Hot Source is a meet-up group for the creative digital community in Norwich. It’s been running for three years and organises talks, hacks and creative events for an informal network of about 400.

"Lucy noticed that whenever she organised Norfolk Network events with a digital theme then a particular group of techies, creative and a digital folk would suddenly appear in the audience. Norfolk Network’s remit is across all the business sectors in Norfolk so Lucy convened a group of people from the digital creative scene and pointed out the opportunity to convene a new community.

A couple of meetings later and Hot Source was born. Because of her role in its foundation the Hot Source organisers still give Lucy the unofficial title of ‘Mum’ when she comes to their events. [This month,] Hot Source is finally doing an inclusive design event, and it's a cracker!" - Tom Wood, co-founder of Foolproof and member of the NN
