Bath Business Conference returns for fifth iteration
The Bath Business Conference returns for its fifth year, taking place on Tuesday 13th October 2026 at the Apex City of Bath Hotel.
Now firmly established as a fixture in Bath’s business calendar, the annual event will explore a range of topics affecting organisations today, from artificial intelligence and leadership to economic development and policy.
The conference will open with a speed networking session led by Luca Volentir, Founder of The Briefing Room, and Les Redwood, Head of Marketing and Business Development at Mogers Drewett.
A programme of panel discussions will examine key issues facing the local business community, including the proposed Overnight Visitor Levy and the role of human creativity in an increasingly AI-driven world. The latter session will feature Zsike Peter, author of Thinkbait.
Delegates will also be able to choose from a series of workshops covering topics such as fraud and cybercrime, storytelling, business coaching, leadership, retirement planning and HR.
The programme also includes a session led by author and entrepreneur Dr Margaret Heffernan, marking the relaunch of Bath Rotary Club.
The conference will conclude with discussions on developing a winning mindset through sport and a look at Bath’s future through the lens of artificial intelligence and strategic planning.
Organisers say the event is designed to encourage discussion, collaboration and knowledge-sharing across the local business community.
Tickets can be booked through Welcome to Bath.
