The Entrepreneur Festival to Bring Together Founders, Investors and Innovators in Leeds
More than 4,000 entrepreneurs, founders, investors, innovators and public sector leaders are expected to gather in Leeds next summer as The Entrepreneur Festival takes place at the Royal Armouries on the 15-17 June 2027. Designed to connect the people, organisations and networks that support business growth, the three-day festival will provide a platform for collaboration, innovation and investment, with a focus on helping founder-led businesses start, scale and succeed.
Entrepreneurship remains one of the UK’s greatest strengths, but turning ambition into a successful business requires more than a great idea. Access to customers, capital, expertise and strong professional networks continues to play a critical role in business growth. The Entrepreneur Festival has been created to bring those elements together under one roof, creating opportunities for meaningful connections and practical business outcomes.
The event will feature more than 300 speakers, including entrepreneurs who have built, scaled and exited businesses, alongside investors and industry leaders with first-hand experience of supporting growth. The programme is being shaped by an advisory group of successful founders, investors and business leaders to ensure content reflects the real challenges and opportunities facing businesses today.
At the heart of the festival will be five dedicated stages covering Start-Up, Build & Scale, Investment, Leadership and Exit. Together, the sessions will explore the key decisions, challenges and opportunities encountered throughout the business lifecycle, providing attendees with practical insights and strategies they can apply within their own organisations.
By bringing together founders, investors, industry leaders and place-based organisations, The Entrepreneur Festival aims to strengthen connections across the entrepreneurial ecosystem and create new opportunities for collaboration, investment and growth.
The Entrepreneur Festival takes place at the Royal Armouries, Leeds, from 15-17 June 2027.
