Apart from FirstTuesday does anyone know of non-London based e-business networking events? There are a lot in London but it is rare to read / hear about them out of London. Brighton?

More details can be found out about the London events by doing a search on 'networking' in the providers section (http://www.e-consultancy.com/providers/search.asp ) but here is a brief list:

Clerkenwell Social
WAPwednesday
DotCircus.com
Digital Futures
thechemistry.com
First Tuesday
Kane-Thompson Forum
Boob Night

Anyone know of any others? There was rumoured to be a Shoreditch Social being set up to rival the Clerkenwell get togethers...

A couple more, though London based....

E-vikings... for scandanavian companies based in london; see this article:

Thanks guys for your info - I'm going to both events this Thursday, if you need details give me a call.

Another one (paid for I think) is ChinaOrange run by Venturedome.com, interested parties drop me a line.
