A Note from Noa
We’re bringing together three international experts to share their fascinating stories of influence, globally and locally.
Following the wonderful response to our 2026 Summit, we’re keeping the experience intimate, with just 150 places for senior leaders and changemakers. This year, welcoming both women and men.
It’s an event for leaders looking to extend their own perspective, bring new thinking back to their team and considering the impact of influence across their organisations. This summit is an opportunity to engage with ideas and experiences beyond the everyday demands of leadership.
From our 2026 Summit we also launched our Next Move Network of Alumni and Members who have connected with this movement.

The Next Move Event 2027
Building on the resounding success of our 2026 summit, The Next Move 2027 returns as an unmissable, high-impact forum for senior leaders and ambitious professionals.
What separates people who are influential from those who merely have authority, expertise or a compelling argument?
Featuring an exceptional lineup of guest speakers, real-world case analyses, and immersive sessions, the 2027 event is designed to elevate your strategic mindset, unlock new levels of executive presence, and connect you with a vibrant network of high-performing leaders.
