Industry Forum members suggest the topics and speakers for our events according to their own priorities and concerns.
Our core programme includes 20-25 meetings per year, the majority of which take place over breakfast, lunch or dinner in top quality central London venues. Attendance is restricted to members and invited guests.
Industry Forum members participate in discussions with government and shadow government ministers, members of select committees, heads of regulatory agencies, EU and EC representatives and senior advisers and academics.
Meetings are often held at the critical early stages of policy development, when input can be most valuable. Business members provide feedback and suggestions; ministers and other policy makers/regulators take soundings and listen to concerns.
The combination of senior business people and government representatives provides an environment for constructive, robust and sometimes quite productive dialogue.
Under the Chatham House rule, speakers explore issues and options and frequently appreciate unfiltered feedback from industry professionals across a range of sectors.
Members represent a very wide range of business sectors. Our events give members extensive opportunities to network informally and discuss issues and opinions outside of their own sectors.
