Dear operations leader who holds everything together at your organisation:
This is your sign to prioritise yourself, your growth, and make connections with your peers. 👏
Join us for the ONLY conference in Europe that is designed for YOU:
the COOs, VPs of Operations, Heads of Operations, and Operations Managers who want to connect with people who get it.
This year's theme:
How to lead in an unpredictable world by building resilience within yourself, your organisation, and the broader ecosystem
Your ticket includes:
✅ Full access to the 2-day cONference experience - Step away from the day-to-day chaos to engage with top experts and thought leaders as they share actionable strategies to help you build resilience across ecosystems, organisations, teams, and within yourself.
🛠 Hands-on learning – Join interactive roundtables and fun workshops for in-depth discussions and immersive problem-solving with real-world challenges.
🧠 Powerful connections – Connect with other operations leaders, share your experiences, and get honest advice from people who really get it.
🎉 Evening socials – Keep the momentum going and celebrate with us on both days after the sessions are over!
💎 Long-term value – Get access to session recordings and form lasting relationships to support you beyond the event.
This is more than just a conference - it’s an investment in your growth and success. 🚀
Why ON?
Operations Nation is THE space for operations leaders to learn, connect, and grow in their careers.
We're operations leaders ourselves, so we've walked in your shoes and felt how lonely Operations can be. Not anymore though - that's what the cONference was built for.
