Urbano hosts regular speaker networking breakfasts to investigate topics of interest to our members and other business founders, owners and directors. Our focus is to bring together those that lead their companies to learn and develop new business opportunities in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

For our September Urbano speaker networking breakfast, we will be joined by Pano Christou, the CEO of Pret A Manger.

Pano is unique in modern times as someone who has not only spent 25 years at the same company, but has risen through the ranks to become CEO. He now oversees Pret A Manger’s near-700 stores across Britain, Hong Kong, Dubai, and the United States.

In a relaxed, interactive discussion, we shall cover Pano's rise through the firm and how those experiences have shaped him as a business leader, but also how helps Pret navigate the changing face of retail and hospitality.

Facilitated and chaired by Mark Herring, Urbano's Connector-In-Chief, this breakfast event is sponsored by CAMA Group, which offers comprehensive storage solutions for the creative and construction industries and hosted by Seddons GSC, specialists in Real Estate, Family Law, Wealth Management, Disputes, Corporate Law, & Employment .
