We are delighted to have secured our Sussex Chamber members a special discounted invitation for the 15th Acumen Business Convention!

The Sussex Chamber has been the Convention Partner for over a decade, and we wouldn’t miss it for the world! Being the 15th Anniversary Celebration, the event is bigger than ever, bringing together some of the most dynamic and thought-provoking speakers.

We are going to hear from Sarah Willingham the most recent owner of the iconic i360, a Dragon, TV personality and successful entrepreneur; Peter James the master of mystery and No.1 bestselling author with Brighton at its heart; Adam Pearson an accomplished actor, TV host, and passionate disability campaigner sharing insights on overcoming adversity; and our Brighton community’s very own Rob Starr MBE who is an entrepreneur, charity leader, and recipient of King's Honour recognition—a true local star making a difference in the community through his remarkable work.

And… as if that is not enough…there is also… the CreativePod Buck-Off After-Party… to finish off the day with lots of laughter and scrumptious Greek food from Nostos Catering. As always, there will be many surprises throughout the day…if you’ve been before you’d know..

This annual event regularly attracts 300 CEOs and business executives of all industries – amongst the biggest business convention outside of the capital. But a video is worth more than a thousand words, so here is a 1 minute video of the 2024 convention!

It is a not-for-profit event which supports a different charity every year, and this year the chosen charity is Rockinghorse Children’s Charity, a great local charity supporting the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital in Brighton.

The 15th ACUMEN BUSINESS CONVENTION taking place on Thursday 22th May 2025 at the Grand Hotel, Brighton. The event sells out every year.
