The Gherkin is one of the most iconic architectural spots in London and the stylish Sterling Restaurant sits at its base. Food is all freshly prepared and there’s a great range of wine and drinks to accompany a meal or just to complement good conversation. The glass walled, main bar offers plenty of space and great views out onto the concourse and the impressive architecture and unique design make The Sterling a trendy spot in the centre of the City. We’ll be sampling some of their delicious menu at the event.

It’s a productive and enjoyable way to end the working day, reconnect with colleagues and set up meetings for the year ahead.

And don’t forget your business cards…

Running for over a decade, our events offer a proven, cost-effective and enjoyable way to grow your professional network and generate new opportunities.
