Live & on-demand: OakNorth events

Join us for breakfast on Wednesday 10th September, and hear from two seasoned CMOs and a marketing agency leader as they share their learnings from leading marketing at a roster of high-growth companies.

A private dinner on September 16th to explore how to better unlock capital markets to meet the needs of founders and power an entrepreneurial economy, with principal guest Callum Anderson MP – Labour MP for Buckingham and Bletchley, and Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology.

As businesses scale, performance often takes the lead — but what happens when brand starts to slip? In this 40-minute webinar, OakNorth’s Senior Product Marketing Manager, Charita Venkatesh, speaks with three marketing leaders about how to strike the right balance between short-term results and long-term brand value.

As property businesses grow, so do the complexities: more portfolios, more admin, more to manage. In this 40-minute session, OakNorth’s Director of Business Banking, Peter King, sits down with Aviram Shahar, Co-Founder and CEO of Lendlord, to explore how fast-growing landlords and investors are using digital tools to reduce friction and stay in control.

OakNorth’s Director of Debt Finance, Greg Manson, moderated the session, joined by Dean Leslie (Director at GLPG) and Max Kyte (Director at Kyte Property), for a candid discussion on what it really takes to deliver homes — both flats and houses — in today’s market.

OakNorth recently co-hosted a breakfast discussion with the Adam Smith Institute, joined by policymakers, housing experts, and property investors to explore the role Urban Development Corporations (UDCs) could play in addressing the UK’s housing crisis.  

In today’s fast-paced digital world, marketing isn’t just about being seen, it’s about being understood. For scaling businesses, that means building strategies that are focused, flexible, and deeply rooted in what your customers actually care about.

That’s exactly what we explored at our recent breakfast panel, hosted in partnership with Launch Lab.

To kick off 2025, we hosted an event bringing together leaders from scale-ups and high-growth companies to discuss the realities of scaling—what works, what doesn’t, and how to navigate the inevitable hurdles. Held at our Soho office, the session was designed to equip ambitious female founders with actionable insights to help them grow sustainably and successfully.
