Blackthorn Focus is a publications and events organisation dedicated to Europe's financial markets.

Our aim

Blackthorn Focus produces publications and events for financial markets professionals, companies and their investors.

Meet the expert dinners

To support and educate the UK's private investor community, Blackthorn Focus runs a series of London-based educational dinners for investors, introducing them to a different financial markets expert every month.

We have previously enjoyed expert contributions from Jon Moulton, Sean O'Flanagan and Nigel Lingwood.

These are private functions and typically not advertised, even on the Blackthorn Focus website. If you are a serious stock market investor and would like to attend, get in touch using the contact form here.

EXECtogether

Since 2017, Blackthorn Focus has run EXECtogether, a business social event for executive directors of quoted companies.

The event attracts executives from quoted companies on AIM, Main Market, FTSE 250 and the FTSE 100.

EXECtogether works by creating a relaxed, informal, confidential forum between business leaders, enabling the exchange of experience, perspective and discussion.

Contact Blackthorn Focus if you would like to be present at a future event.
