CWO Dinner
on a grand scale
20 years after our first CWO Dinner for financial services in London, we’re thrilled to bring this grand event to life. Where better than at the stunning five-star South Place Hotel, just a stone’s throw from Liverpool Street Station?
Alongside 50 senior leaders from London’s finest financial services, banking, insurance and private equity firms, we invite you to meet some of the most innovative technology companies in the UK for an entertaining evening of peer-to-peer networking, relationship building and never-before-shared insights.
Each guest will join a table of tech sponsors and their finance peers to discuss shared challenges and opportunities, while enjoying some of the city’s best cuisine and a paired wine-tasting experience from a world-renowned wine expert. After a blind tasting of six carefully chosen fine wines, guests will also compete for the coveted title of Chief Wine Officer. Will it be you?
Spaces for these events fill up quickly, and due to the high demand, there are often waiting lists. RSVP now to ensure you get a seat at the table for this exclusive experience.
