For those who are not part of the full ENGAGED programme, we release a limited number of tickets to attend our conferences as standalone experiences. These are designed as a powerful day away from the noise of everyday business, bringing together founders and leaders who are serious about growth, clarity and the conversations that move businesses forward.

Across the conference, you’ll take part in focused sessions on topics that directly impact how your business grows.. from communicating your vision and selling your services more effectively, to building your personal brand and generating meaningful PR and exposure for your company.

Guest speakers from Ed’s wider network join the experience, sharing insights from their own journeys and opening up conversations that challenge the way you think about leadership, visibility and opportunity. Just as valuable are the conversations that happen around the sessions, over coffee, during discussions and at dinner, where founders share ideas, explore challenges and often form relationships that lead to real collaboration and opportunity.

It’s not just a retreat; it’s two days that can change how you think about your business, how you communicate it, and the people you surround yourself with as it grows.

Tickets from £495 + VAT

WELCOME TO THE ENGAGED CONFERENCE

WHAT A TYPICAL CONFERENCE LOOKS LIKE

  • Members arrive, settle in and reconnect with the group over coffee. The conference begins with an introduction to the themes for the day ahead.

  • A session led by Ed James exploring how great communicators guide conversations, influence a room and communicate ideas with clarity and confidence.

    Over time, members gain confidence in how they talk about their work, while also building meaningful connections with other professionals in the room.

  • A practical workshop on how to communicate value, approach sales conversations effectively and build trust with potential clients.

    Ed introduces the theme with insights and examples from his broadcasting career, where communication happens live and under constant scrutiny.

  • Selected members present their business, ideas or challenges to the group, creating space for feedback, perspective and new opportunities.

  • A session focused on how founders and leaders can build a stronger personal brand, communicate their story more effectively and represent their business with greater authority.

  • A dedicated session exploring how to generate exposure for your business, approach media opportunities and position yourself as a credible voice in your industry.

  • Guests from Ed’s wider network join the group to share their experiences, insights and lessons from their own careers, followed by an open discussion with members.

  • A relaxed dinner with the membership group, allowing members to build stronger relationships, share experiences and continue conversations in a more informal setting.
