This is not even close to your ‘typical business conference’.
This is a rare event.
Here, growth meets meaning. Strategy gets focused and sharpened. Purpose deepens and you leave changed.
You enjoy two and a half uninterrupted days away from distraction together to build better businesses, stronger leaders and a collective force for good. This is not about extracting value, but sharing values. It's about contribution as opposed to competition. It's real connection and real impact with JOY right at its core.
And yes it’s being bold enough to create a bold new world; one where we’re building great businesses and fostering humanity flourishing …. simultaneously and together.
This is the place where you really belong.
Date: 14 - 16 June 2026
Location: Shrigley Hall, Macclesfield

Together, they have joyfully created more than 392 million measurable impacts across categories including education, health, the environment and community development. Together they have really mattered.
The 2026 conference continues the journey to a growing global community aligning around a shared long-term ambition:

Of course! We encourage you to bring your loved ones along so they can share in this life-changing experience and join you in celebrating the joy together.

While almost all of the delegates are B1G1 Members, the Conference is open to anyone curious about building a business that creates lasting value and real-world impact.
You’ll be alongside business owners, founders and leadership teams who care deeply about trust, purpose, and long-term success (who value meaningful conversation over surface-level networking).
The Conference is also an opportunity to learn from the lived experiences of Worthy Cause representatives who share their inspiring stories.
This is primarily an in-room experience designed for presence and participation. Limited recordings or summaries may be shared post-event, but the value is in being there.
Shrigley Hall is intentionally located just outside the city to create an intimate and immersive conference experience, while remaining easy to reach.
