Following the positive response to our breakfast events last year, we’re pleased to confirm that they’re back for 2026 with more sessions and an updated format. What stood out was the quality of discussion – people had the space to ask questions, share experiences and learn from others facing similar challenges.
For 2026, we’ve doubled the number of events and built more discussion time into the agenda, while keeping numbers deliberately limited to preserve the quality of conversation.
What to Expect from Our Breakfast Events
Each breakfast event follows a relaxed, discussion-led format designed for real-world organisations and real-world challenges.
→ Informal networking and breakfast from 8.30am
→ Expert-led session focused on practical insight and current issues
→ Open discussion, with time to ask questions, share experiences and explore challenges with peers
The official session runs from 9am–11am, but attendees are very welcome to arrive early, grab a coffee and ease into the morning.
