About the Hidden Edge Club
The Hidden Edge Club brings together the city’s most innovative and forward thinking leaders from some of the worlds largest and most important companies. Our mission is to give our members a competitive edge by identifying hidden insights buried within their organisation’s information sets. We meet quarterly in some of London’s most exclusive venues to discuss timely market challenges faced by our members and explore strategy options & best practices.
Discussion Topic
After a turbulent year, with tensions brewing in the East and the rise of far-right leadership in the West, 2018 could see geopolitical tensions reach boiling point. How will this affect international matters and unsettle global businesses? This year, we saw AI, robots, cybersecurity breaches and big data become mainstream. But how will companies cope with the emerging technologies in 2018? Where are the opportunities for investment?
Join us on the 28th November to take a provocative look at 2018, and share predictions and strategies with your peers to protect your business against the risks of 2018 and continue to drive business value in the New Year.
As always, we’ll unite London’s most innovative, forward-thinking executives for an evening of exclusive networking and lively conversation. And, this time around, we’ll also host our famous speaker and panel session where our guest speakers will be making some big predictions for 2018. Focusing on the old PEST analysis, we’re going back to business school, asking our panel to weigh in on key political, economic, social and technological forecasts for the New Year.
Reserve your place at our final meeting of 2017 and join us for an evening of exclusive networking, drinks and a gaze into the Hidden Edge Crystal Ball for 2018. We’ll meet on the 28th November, 6:30pm at the May Fair Hotel.
Throughout the year, we’ve united London’s most senior leaders of marketing, supply chain, operations, analytics, finance and technology from such companies as Financial Times, Santander, BT, HSBC, The Guardian and many others to share their challenges and visions on some of today’s greatest challenges.
Register below to reserve your place at the Hidden Edge Crystal Ball. Please feel free to contact Club Manager, Ellie, at ellie.collins@hiddenedgeclub.com with any questions about the group or the event.
