Summer Insight Day

We are thrilled to announce that we will be hosting our Summer Insight Day at the world famous sporting venue, The Oval. 

As always, the day will offer BESA members an informative mix of discussions and talks from a range of inspiring and influential guest speakers, followed by networking with fellow members over an al fresco lunch overlooking the cricket ground. We look forward to welcoming all of our members (and cricket fans!) back for this year's event.
