What's new in 2026?

We’re incredibly excited to announce that The Future of Brands will welcome you to our new home, 180 Studios, on 29 April 2026. 

For the very first time, we’ve transformed the event into a multi-stage experience set across three floors.

Designed to offer you a variety of experiences, from headline keynotes and panels through to intimate masterclasses and workshops, as well as personal development and wellness opportunities, The Future of Brands will be back, bigger, better and bolder than ever before. 

In 2026, we’ll ask our speakers to explore what becomes possible when exceptional people have exceptional tools.
