Supporting you in providing responsible leadership
LeaderFest is not just another conference – it’s a unique, action-focused experience designed to equip you with practical tools and strategies for success.
Created for business leaders and their senior teams, LeaderFest offers the opportunity to learn from and connect with like-minded peers, sharing insights and real-world leadership experiences.
Open to members and non-members alike, it’s your opportunity to engage with other SME business leaders in meaningful conversations that drive real impact. After a sell-out event in 2024, we recommended booking early to avoid disappointment.
