Stripe Community Norwich is part of Stripe's global community, here in Norwich — a brand-new group here to support and grow the local business community. The community comes first; our events are just how we get together.
Every month we run a co-working day at Fuel Studios, our home and partner: bring your laptop and your to-do list, work alongside founders, freelancers and makers, catch a short talk and share some lunch on us. We're thinking about other kinds of events too — watch this space.

From the people who came.
Running your own business doesn't have to mean figuring everything out alone — that's what I walked away remembering after Stripe's Community Coworking Day in Norwich.
When you work for yourself, it's exciting and hugely rewarding, but at times isolating. There was something energising about spending the day with people who care deeply about what they're building — hearing about their businesses, swapping ideas, and having the kind of conversations that spark entirely new ones.
You may be building your own business, but you don't have to build it in isolation. Thank you to Kieran and the Stripe Community for bringing us together — already looking forward to the next one!
It was great to see some familiar faces, but also to connect with new people. A really friendly vibe and an inspiring event!
