eiClub Salon Programme

Our Members benefit from an extensive eiClub Salon Programme, with over thirty salons per year to choose from. The programme consists of: invigorating monthly suppers held in the private dining rooms of Central London restaurants, each chaired by an eiAmbassador, and regular speaker-led Breakfast Salons which take place in Somerset House, the home of Editorial Intelligence and eiClub. 

From the venue, to the guest list and speakers, we curate our Salons so that our eiClub members benefit from the best connections, conversations and ideas to ensure that their valuable time is well spent.
