Pillars is back, bringing together some of the sharpest voices in hospitality for a morning of real talk, fresh ideas, and forward-thinking conversation.
This isn’t another networking mixer or surface-level discussion. Pillars is about going deeper: uncovering the industry’s pressure points and sharing the stories that are shaping what’s next in hospitality.
We’re thrilled to announce our panellists:
- Harrison Hide: Founder & Entrepreneur, Long Lane Hospitality
- Holly Arnold: Founder, Project Taste
- Nash Gierak: Founder, Bold Green Strategies
- Lorraine Copes: Founder, Be Inclusive Hospitality
- Alix Caiger: Founder of Pillars, Director of Fendale Group & Founder of Caiger & Co. Catering
Together, they’ll bring sharp insight and lived experience across the industry.
Expect insights on:
- Rising consumer expectations and what they really want now
- Sustainability shifting from checkbox to core strategy
- The role of wellbeing in both teams and guest experiences
- Bold branding, intentional hiring, and inclusive leadership
- Menu innovations, global influences, and the future of food culture
Whether you’ve been in the industry for 5 months or 50 years, Pillars is your space to connect, challenge ideas, and gain perspectives you won’t hear anywhere else.
