Circle Testimonials

It was a real pleasure for The Ritz London to host the very first Neighbourhood Breakfast. The gatherings have been a hugely successful way to engage with leading luxury brands and importantly to build some very valuable and lasting connections within the industry. Francesca has created something truly special. Her passion energy and attention to detail, combined with her ability to bring the right people together make each gathering both enjoyable and meaningful.

Maryam Sajjadi - Director of Sales, The Ritz Hotel

I believe that true leadership is strengthened through collaboration, the exchange of perspectives and the willingness to learn from one another. Being part of this network is a valuable opportunity to build meaningful connections, share experiences and transform collective expertise into new ideas and best practices, collectively shaping the future of our industry.

Giulia Gulisano - Retail Manager UK, Dolce & Gabbana

I always leave feeling inspired, with fresh ideas, new perspectives and meaningful connections that bring real value to my business. The intimate format and beautiful, prestigious venues make every gathering even more enjoyable. A special thank you to Francesca for creating such a wonderful initiative and for always making me feel so welcome. It’s something I genuinely look forward to every time!

Tommaso Iotti - GM Trade UK-Europe-Middle East, Ralph Lauren

It’s been a place to share, explore and debate the future of the industry. What separates this community from others across our industry is the learning opportunities. Whether from expert guest speakers, or the combined experience in the room, I’ ve always left the conversations inspired and excited for the future
