Pull Up a Chair for Connection & Collaborative Learning
- Top Floor, The Walrus & Carpenter - right opposite PI LIVE Europe
This year, we’re introducing something new and special to PI LIVE Europe: The Partner’s Arms.
We’ve taken over the top floor of the Walrus & Carpenter pub, directly across from the venue, transforming it into a premium, private space for curated networking, collaborative learning, and focused conversations.
With capacity for up to 100 people, a private bar, flexible seating, and full AV, this is where smaller, high-value gatherings can happen without the buzz of the show floor. Perfect for diving deep into emerging topics, sparking new ideas, and connecting with people who share your interests.
Why It’s a Game-Changer
PI LIVE has always been about connecting the partnership marketing community, but The Partner’s Arms takes that mission to the next level.
By creating an intimate, off-floor environment, we can:
- Explore new and fast-moving topics in a more interactive way
- Encourage two-way dialogue and idea sharing
- Bring together specialists, innovators, and curious minds from across the industry
- Offer a relaxed, informal setting that makes building relationships feel natural
