Lunch + Learn: Brighton
Lunch+Learn is a monthly series at Plus X Innovation designed to support the growth of entrepreneurs, founders, and scaling businesses.
Each session brings practical learning, expert advice, and real-world examples across various topics relevant to the challenges of today’s businesses.
Whether you're looking to scale, improve leadership skills, or understand key funding routes, these sessions are tailored to provide actionable insights you can apply right away.
Sessions include a mix of presentations and Q&A, along with lunch to keep you energised while networking with like-minded individuals.
What you'll learn
You'll leave with a clearer understanding of where AI can add value, where human judgement matters most, and a practical framework for using AI more intentionally.
In this session, you'll explore:
- The hidden impact of frictionless AI on creativity, learning and problem-solving
- The human capabilities AI cannot replicate, including contextual judgement, critical thinking and intuition
- How to identify which tasks to automate and which to keep firmly human
- A practical framework for creating your own AI manifesto
- Ways to protect and strengthen the skills that make you uniquely valuable

The people I have met here make it a dream coming in a few times a week! I don't see myself being able to go back to working from home the same way I did before coming to Plus X Innovation, I don't think I could leave the sense of community behind. It really is something everyone who is working from home should try!
Central Research Laboratory has contributed to our journey in many ways: access to a network, manufacturing, procurement services, and workshop facilities. CRL enables us to feel like a slightly bigger company than we would otherwise be if left to our own devices. Being here at CRL as a cohort member, makes it feel a lot more real and plugged in into the ecosystem.
Besides the workshop facilities, the best thing about working in the Brighton hub has got to be being able to collaborate with people in the same building as you. The variety of expertise and experience in the building is awesome.
We could not be in a better place to grow as a company. We get amazing support from the Plus X Innovation staff, plus collaboration opportunities with the other inspiring residents and companies. We feel like we’re living in the future of workplaces in the present and that is pretty damn cool.
Through my time at Plus X Innovation my business has turned from a student project into a registered R&D company. My favourite thing about being at Plus X Brighton is having a mini family in the office and a beautiful space to be the best you and make the best connections.
