It brings a diverse collection of similarly curious minds together, the captains of industry from today and tomorrow, not only for earnest, civilised debate, but also for the expansion of personal and professional networks. Prestigious speakers will invigorate the discussion, but it is through members that the club will flourish. Areté Club invites members to grapple with the testing questions and
controversies of our times. Members are drawn from varied professions and experiences – from the worlds of politics, security, business, development and the arts. Areté Club is about spreading ideas across industries, across generations, and between leaders. The format of Areté Club dinners is a drinks reception, followed by a three-course meal. The Director opens the session and introduces the chair. After starters, the first speaker begins. The second speaker talks after the main course. Discussion follows after dessert, over coffee. Arrival will be at 7pm for dinner at 7.30pm prompt. The Club connects early ventures, ideas, projects, and people with potential partners and investors.
