Big Ideas, Small Tables

We take the best of the academic world from professors, authors and researchers to industry leaders, innovators and edge-runners — and bring them out of the lecture halls and into the pub. Expect sharp, thought-provoking talks served in small, digestible bursts, all designed to spark conversation, challenge assumptions, and open up new perspectives.

This isn’t a stiff academic conference or a formal debate; it’s a more relaxed night where ideas flow freely. Pull up a chair, grab a drink, and lean into a mix of topics you didn’t even know you were curious about. Join us alongside lifelong learners, casual thinkers, or just someone who loves a good story. Pints of Knowledge brings sharp ideas, straight to your table.
