Conference

Generation Next

The Generation Next programme is exclusively for rising, fledgling operators, from up and coming street food vendors through to operators with one to five sites. As well as networking opportunities, these operators come together to hear from, and learn from, industry experts across property, finance, technology and logistics and bring these learnings back to their business.

The series brings together industry experts and peers twice a year to provide a melting pot of insight, ideas and advice. Each event features a set of keynote speakers, providing a forum to gain insight from industry peers and experts.

This event is free to attend for restaurant or pub operators owning 1 - 5 sites in total.
