About this Event
BOOM Inner Circle Dinner
Vintry & Mercer | London
Theme: When Growth Starts to Break Things
BOOM Inner Circle brings together business owners, directors and senior leaders running growing companies for a smaller, more curated experience within the wider BOOM Networking community.
On 23 April, we gather at Vintry & Mercer, one of the City of London’s most elegant boutique hotels, for an evening of thoughtful conversation, exceptional dining and meaningful connection.
Only around 24 seats are available.
The Theme – When Growth Starts to Break Things
Growth is exciting — until the pressure starts to show.
Processes stop keeping up.
Teams stretch.
Communication becomes harder.
Decisions become heavier.
Leaders find themselves carrying more responsibility than ever.
Around this table you’ll find experienced business leaders actively navigating these challenges, sharing honest perspectives and practical insights from the realities of scaling a company.
Expect intelligent discussion, different viewpoints and the kind of conversation that rarely happens in larger networking environments.
Hosted by Paul Bulloch & Gary Dawes
The evening is curated by Paul Bulloch and Gary Dawes, founders of BOOM Business Club.
