Cornwall & South West

Peer Advisory Board — Cornwall & South West

The Director's Table is a private peer advisory board launching in Cornwall, with additional tables planned across the South West of England.

It brings together established business owners and senior leaders for monthly structured advisory sessions — chaired with the discipline of a board meeting, with the independence and experience of peers around the table.

Why Cornwall and the South West?

Business ownership in Cornwall and the South West is characterised by founder-led businesses, tight professional networks, and a relative scarcity of the independent, board-level challenge that businesses in larger cities can access more easily.

The Director's Table was built specifically for this context — to give established businesses in the region access to the kind of structured peer advisory that changes decision quality.

Who is at the table?

Membership is curated and by application only. Members are established business owners and senior leaders — typically running businesses with turnover of £500k to £5m and beyond — across sectors including financial services, professional services, hospitality, retail, manufacturing, and creative industries.

Where do sessions take place?

Sessions take place at a private dining venue in Cornwall. Exact location details are provided to confirmed members. The format is designed to be reachable for business owners across the county and into Devon.

New tables are planned for Devon, Somerset, and Bristol. If you are based outside Cornwall, register your interest for a future table.
