BOOM Inner Circle | Private Dining at Smith & Wollensky | July 2026

BOOM Inner Circle is a smaller, curated dining experience for founders, CEOs and senior leaders who value stronger conversations and better relationships with the right people around the table.
This Inner Circle evening brings together a carefully selected group of business owners, founders and senior leaders for an evening of private dining, thoughtful conversation and meaningful connection at Smith & Wollensky, London.
Each Inner Circle dinner is curated around a key theme, topic or special guest, designed to create conversations that go beyond surface-level networking and into the realities of leadership, growth, decision-making and business ownership.
Specific themes and guest details for this dinner will be announced closer to the event.
What remains consistent is the quality of the room.
Expect experienced perspectives, ambitious people and a more considered environment designed for leaders who value continuity, trust and better conversations over bigger rooms and louder events.
Only a very limited number of seats are available.
Hosted by Paul Bulloch & Gary Dawes
