Future of London currently has 60 member organisations, with two-thirds from the public sector, including most London boroughs and main Mayoral bodies. Our housing association and private sector partners join a diverse network that brings together senior leaders across London.

Our funding partners support events and research, attracting a large public sector audience, as core sponsors (eg Arup, Related Argent) that shape our agenda and project sponsors, mainly SMEs such as architects, consultants and developers.

How we help to shape a thriving and equitable city

The Future of London network is passionate about social, environmental and economic sustainability. We enable this vision through:

  • High-level networking and knowledge-sharing via roundtables, workshops and field trips.
  • Equipping urban practitioners with insights and evidence, driving collaboration on major projects.
  • Developing current and future leaders, enhancing confidence, skills and cross-sector networks.

“I’m used to networking across the sector, and other organisations do not feel as inclusive or varied as Future of London.”

Leadership development

Future of London is also about leadership development and helping talented people advance their careers. Core sponsors can nominate team members to join our leadership programmes that bring future leaders together to share learning and build cross-sector networks.

All our partners value the opportunity for their team members to come to Future of London events, meet people with diverse perspectives and see the bigger picture.

As a funding partner, you will help to shape our direction and ensure that we focus on the major issues of the greatest relevance to our partner organisations. Our core sponsors also join our steering group, where over 30 leaders from public and private sector organisations meet quarterly for dinner.
