Our Behind the Brand panel in 2024 was such a hit, we are going even bigger and better with another round of incredible founders.

We all love a founder story and that’s the beauty of this concept. Whatever business sector you work in, there is so much to be learned from those that have built a brand from the ground up. Whether it’s work/life balance, building high performance teams or overcoming challenges, there’s something here for everyone.


Our incredible line up includes, Ben Parker, founder of the cultural phenomenon that is Runna, Nicola Gunby, two time founder, currently building community marketplace platform Cliq and Luke Harries, founder, investor and current head of Growth at AI audio research and deployment specialist, Elevenlabs.

As well as an incredible line up, we are BACK at one of our absolute favourite venues, Curve Club.
