Greenhouse 2026

Greenhouse returns to Jersey’s Freedom Centre on 10th October for its fifth anniversary.

The event will bring together entrepreneurs, business leaders, marketers and creative professionals for talks, workshops and networking, with speakers including Lauren Currie OBE, Georgina Cook, Peter Harris and Gus Bhandal.

Founder Jacqui Patton said the connections made throughout the day are central to the event.

“People come to Greenhouse because they want to hear from brilliant people, but they come back because of how it feels,” said Jacqui. “It’s approachable. Nobody is trying to sell you anything. You can have a proper conversation with someone you’ve never met, hear an idea that changes how you think, and leave with something you can use straight away.

“That feeling of community and momentum is what we’ve built over the last five years, and it’s what makes Greenhouse so special.”

The programme will cover leadership, personal branding, content and business development. Headliner Lauren Currie OBE will explore five rules for backing yourself in business and leadership, while Georgina Cook will discuss how personality and authenticity can build personal brands and communities.

Peter Harris, Head of Content at TUI UK & Ireland, will examine what AI can and cannot do for content teams. LinkedIn strategist Gus Bhandal will focus on turning visibility into authority and revenue.

Interactive workshops led and sponsored by Jersey-based experts Coop Mobile, Park and Floor Ten will give delegates opportunities to put ideas into practice.

“The best events don’t just give you information,” said Greenhouse committee member and Brand Strategist at AM Creative Design, Ali McDonald. “They give you energy. You meet someone who makes you think differently, you hear something that gives you the confidence to try something new, and suddenly you’ve got momentum.”

The event is supported by sponsors Co-op Mobile and Signtech, alongside event partners Ryde, Collins Design & Print, Milk and Randalls.

Now in its fifth year, Greenhouse aims to create opportunities for people at different stages of their careers to exchange ideas, both during sessions and in conversations over coffee.

“Now more than ever, people want to meet people in real life,” said committee member and Director of BD for Maillard and Co, Chantelle Mundy Dunne. “They want to get in a room with people who they can learn from, and make connections that change their business. That’s what sets Greenhouse apart.”
