Catalyst London Mixer #4 - Jun 2026, with The Peer Space at Balfour St Barts

Join us at the Catalyst Mixer with The Peer Space at Balfour St Barts - June 2026

Join us on Tuesday June 30th 2026 from 5 for 530PM for a peer mixer of the local business community.

A space to gather, connect, share experiences, and insights over drinks and canapes.

Expect an open mixer session with an opportunity to speak to the room and to hear mini thought leader slots from The Peer Space vetted speaker pool, in order to really spark and stimulate the conversations around the room. 

If you're there by 530pm The Peer Space will be buying a round of drinks and positioning their services in the field of peer based mixers, leaders lunches and speaker dinners for businesses and communities.

Then 3 of our favourite speakers will be sampling some of their content in mini 8 minute keynotes.

🎤 First up it's Paul Cook with:
"The day I learnt that good enough is (good) enough"

From fear to a quiet confidence - when the transformation expert met his own resistance. This isn't a talk about change. It’s about why we freeze in front of the things which matter, and what actually unlocks us.

Paul Cook has spent more than 30 years helping organisations navigate change, transformation, and growth. As founder of The Transformation Guide, he works with leaders and teams to simplify complexity, build capability, and turn good intentions into meaningful action.

🎤 Next it’s James Bligh with:
“Exploring impacts of AI on the next generation of tech leaders”

In this light hearted talk James will look back at his own learnings and experiences, and what might be taken from that to ensure the next generation get the best possible start they can.

The talk will cover the impacts on problem solving, innovation and personal growth; confidence in later life; and a simple illustration of using and knowing the right tools for the job.

James is a tech leader with over 21 years’ experience across event, automotive and travel software. Before joining big group, he held roles at Momentus, Porsche, Disney, ExCeL London and many more. He joined Big Group in 2023 where he is Head of Technology.

🎤 Finally Antoinette Chappell will take the stage with:
“You're sitting on a goldmine (and you don't even know it!)”

So go unleash your superpower!

Most professionals are giving away their most valuable asset for free, not out of generosity, but because they don't realise it has value.

In this talk, Antoinette explores why expertise becomes invisible the closer you are to it and how sharing what you already know can transform the way the right clients find you.

Antoinette is the founder of ARC Writing and Translation Services, a London-based executive thought leadership consultancy. She helps C-suite executives and founders turn their expertise into visible authority. So she knows better than most what it takes to find your edge, own it and make it work for you.
