Spring South West Investment Summit

The Investment Summit Spring 2026 will bring together leading investors, founders and innovators for an afternoon of insight and opportunity — with a newly strengthened defence and dual‑use innovation focus running through the programme.

Confirmed speakers include Lauren Crawley‑Moore from the London Stock Exchange, who supports ambitious private companies preparing for growth and public markets, and Freddie Knaggs and Nour Hassan from Beauhurst, bringing data‑driven intelligence on high‑value companies, investment trends and the South West’s evolving tech landscape.

Alongside keynote insight, the Summit will feature panel discussions, live startup pitches and networking designed to spark meaningful connections and deal flow across sectors including AI, climate tech, health innovation, finance — and this year, a dedicated emphasis on defence‑aligned technologies and opportunities.

A packed, high‑impact afternoon for anyone shaping the future of innovation and investment in the region.
