ILW26 Breakfast Networking: London
#TogetherWeNetwork
ILW26 Breakfast Networking: London
Part of International Leadership Week 2026
In-person breakfast and brunch networking events across the UK
#TogetherWeNetwork brings leaders together in welcoming, local settings for meaningful, face-to-face connection. Hosted by our Fellows, partners and IoL colleagues, these informal sessions are designed to strengthen professional networks and make leadership communities more accessible, no matter where you’re based.
We often hear, “You never do anything in my area.” This ILW26 initiative is our answer. With multiple locations nationwide and more to be announced soon, #TogetherWeNetwork creates opportunities to connect closer to home, while still being part of a wider leadership community.
