In 2025, Founders Forum Global marks its 20th anniversary, promising to be our most monumental gathering yet. Held throughout London, against the lively backdrop of London Tech Week, and in the beautiful English countryside, we will bring together the world’s most influential founders, pioneering CEOs, top-tier investors, and visionary leaders.

Expect unparalleled networking, groundbreaking discussions, and a celebration of two decades of innovation. As we look to the future, this milestone event is set to redefine what it means to be at the forefront of global technology.

“The really exciting thing about Founders Forum is you get to meet this incredible mix of people from government policy, big business, startup, scaleup, and venture capital. It's an incredibly eclectic mix that you very rarely get in one place. ”
