About this Event

The Top 50 UK Sales Leaders 2026

A live awards night for the operators rebuilding UK sales with AI. Five sharp talks. One list. One room.

Nine years on. The Top 50 UK Sales Leaders is a list nine years in the making, inspired by James Ski's original Sales Confidence community. Each year it highlights the 50 leaders running the UK's fastest-growing companies — and in 2026 it's announced live on stage, in front of 200 of the most relevant people in the room.

(If you want to nominate yourself or a leader go here)

This is not a panel night. There are no breakout sessions. It's a single evening built around two things: five practical 7-minute talks on how operators are using AI to drive real revenue growth, and the announcement of the 2026 Top 50, hosted live by James Ski and Elaine Tyler.

If you lead sales, build sales teams, or invest in companies that do, this is the room.

Why attend

You should be in this room if you want to:

Sharpen how you and your team are using AI in sales
Connect with the top-performing sales leaders in the UK ecosystem
Scale your business — and your career — to the next level
Build the network that compounds for the next five years

What we'll explore

The five talks will cover the questions every UK sales leader is asking right now:

How to use AI voice agents in 2026
How to leverage AI to reduce headcount without losing productivity
How the fastest-growing companies on the planet are scaling sales
The skills sales leaders actually need to stay sharp and productive in 2026
What the top-performing AI-native sales teams are doing differently
