Verian are delighted to be joining Anthropy (one of the UK’s leading cross-sector leadership communities) for their Summer Reception 2026.
Anthropy brings together senior figures from business, government, academia, civil society, media and the arts to explore the long-term future of Britain. Its mission is to inspire fresh thinking, foster collaboration and break down traditional silos to create positive change for people, places and prosperity.
The Anthropy Summer Reception brings together leaders from across sectors to continue the conversations and connections established at Anthropy’s national gatherings. The evening focuses on leadership in a period of economic, political and societal change, exploring how organisations and individuals can contribute to national renewal and stronger leadership across Britain. The programme includes a series of interactive discussion groups designed to encourage open debate and the sharing of insights across sectors.
Michelle Harrison will join a discussion on “Britain in a Changing World.” Moderated by Kamal Ahmed of Fortune Magazine, the session will explore the leadership qualities Britain needs amid geopolitical instability, economic competition and shifting global influence. Discussion themes include national resilience, global competitiveness, soft power and Britain’s role in the world. Michelle will contribute insights alongside Lord Tim Barrow, former National Security Advisor, and Vice Admiral Andrew Burns.
