Round Table: Inspiring the Next Generation

With Kari Owers, O.agency

25 November 2025, 09:30 - 11:30

O.agency Office, Old Brewery Court, Richmond House, Sandyford Rd, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE2 1XG

Tomorrow’s leaders, innovators and changemakers but inspiring today’s young people takes more than good advice. It’s about creating opportunities, sharing real experiences and showing what’s possible through action.

Hosted by Kari Owers of O.agency, winner of the Entrepreneurs’ Forum’s inaugural Impact Award in 2024, this round table brings Forum members together to discuss how we can engage, support and empower the next generation – from mentoring and education to workplace culture and community involvement.

Here’s what to expect:

Setting the Scene 
We’ll begin by exploring what ‘inspiring the next generation’ really means – considering the challenges young people face today and how business leaders can play a meaningful role in shaping their future.

Sharing Perspectives 
Through open discussion, we’ll exchange ideas and experiences – from developing young talent within our own organisations to connecting with schools, colleges and community initiatives.

Practical Ideas and Collective Insight 
We’ll wrap up by drawing together key insights and practical next steps – exploring how we can each take small, tangible actions that make a lasting impact.

This round table is designed for entrepreneurs who care about building legacy and leadership that lasts – a space to share ideas, experiences and inspiration in an open and collaborative setting. 

 

The Small Print 
Our round tables are shaped by the insights and experiences of attendees, so while we aim to cover the topics above, we may also dive into other related areas during the session.

Due to limited capacity round table discussions are exclusively for entrepreneur members only. Guests or substitutions are not allowed.
