What's new for 2026? - Future London 2026

CEO Breakfast and CEO Panel

Breakfast — 08:15 – 09:30 | Offsite
CEO Panel – 10:05 – 10:50 | Main stage, Minster Building

Taking place immediately before the start of Future London, our opening CEO Breakfast will bring together 20 of the city’s most senior leaders for a focused, high-level discussion on securing London’s competitiveness and driving long-term growth.

Building on the findings published by our Growth Commission in Spring 2026, this roundtable will move beyond rhetoric to clear commitments aimed at enhancing London’s position and defining the next phase of the city’s development.

Chaired by John Dickie, Chief Executive of BusinessLDN, and drawing on our cross-sector membership, the CEO Breakfast is an exclusive, invite-only forum to explore how business can harness London’s existing strengths and make the most of emerging opportunities.

Following the breakfast, key insights from the discussion will be reflected in our CEO Panel on the Future London main stage, helping to inform the priorities for the day’s wider conversations.

Who will attend? An invite-only event, the CEO Breakfast will convene leaders who are shaping how London works, grows, and positions itself, who share influence over the city’s economy, neighbourhoods, institutions, and visitor experience.

Thought-leadership roundtables

13:30 – 14:15 | Private meeting rooms, Minster Building

New for 2026, we’ve introduced private, invite-only roundtables, led by our expert policy team and gold-level sponsors. 

Designed to offer space within a packed agenda for those more technical conversations, this roundtable will welcome senior level speakers and curated guest lists to spark discussion between the most influential figures and organisations active in the carefully selected topic areas. 

Unlocking London and wider UK Growth Through Airport Capacity and Infrastructure, including supply chains, construction, and export-led growth

Led by Heathrow and BusinessLDN.

This roundtable will explore how airport capacity can unlock investment, trade, jobs and long-term growth across the UK economy. The discussion will examine the role of airports as economic enablers, the balance between growth and sustainability and what is needed from government and industry to deliver future-ready infrastructure at scale.
