In October, GetHarley hosted over 100 practitioners at the luxurious Oakley Court in Windsor, providing a fun-packed agenda designed to inspire, motivate and energise its community.
Guests were greeted with a branded coffee cart and refreshments before the day began with a warm welcome by founder and CEO, Charmaine Chow.
This was followed by a Fireside Chat all about building a thriving business, featuring speakers Georgia Stevenson (Index Ventures – the venture capital firm known for its investments in FarFetch, Glossier, Net A Porter, and now GetHarley), Anastasya Molodykh McFarlane (Cinven – Private Equity), Andrew Robb (ex-COO-Farfetch) and Chow.
The following session featured a panel discussion about entrepreneurial journeys with Chow and female founders – Michelle Kennedy (Peanut– an app for women to connect with women throughout every stage of their lives from pregnancy to menopause) and Whitney Hawkings, founder of FLOWERBX, an at-home, floral delivery service.
After a delicious, seasonal lunch of pumpkin soup, pasta and wedge sandwiches that allowed guests to connect with their peers and talk to brand sponsors – Revision, PCA SKIN, Epionce, Intradermology and Byonik, team members from GetHarley dived deeper into the GetHarley service. This featured guest practitioners Dr Sophie Shotter, Dr Amiee Vyas and Dr Nester Demosthenous giving the audience details of their own journeys with GetHarley.
The late afternoon was jammed packed with tennis (featuring GetHarley branded balls), swimming, cycling, and more, as guests chose to spend their time as they pleased before the uber glamorous black-tie dinner that took place outside in the Alex Eagle Club, where guests enjoyed a sumptuous three-course meal, under a canopy of lights.
The following day began with a beautiful buffet breakfast and then, for those with a clear head, it was backdown to the Alex Eagle club for pilates with Bryony Deery – a famous pilates instructor loved by many guests.
The weekend concluded with a delicious lunch before many guests left together on a coach back to London.
