A business networking festival is bringing practical support, connection and learning to entrepreneurs navigating growth in 2026.
Hashtag 10 is a live, week-long business networking festival UK wide, running from 12–16 January. The event marks ten years of Hashtag Events and focuses on helping business owners build confidence, clarity and meaningful connections.
Rather than large scale conferences, Hashtag 10 is designed to feel accessible. Two live sessions run each day. This creates space for discussion, learning and genuine interaction.

The Hashtag 10 programme brings together speakers from across the UK. Each session focuses on practical insight that entrepreneurs can apply immediately.

Supporting entrepreneurs through connection
Hashtag 10 is more than a celebration. It is a support platform for entrepreneurs who value learning, community and collaboration.
The live format encourages participation. Recordings are released later through Hashtag’s online platforms. This allows flexibility without losing engagement.
