lunar society hosts annual dinner 2025

On Thursday 11 September, members, guests and friends gathered at the beautiful Edgbaston Priory Club for an evening of conversation, connection and insight at the Lunar Society Annual Dinner 2025.

After a warm welcome reception and delicious three-course dinner, we were delighted to hear from our guest speaker, Sir Andy Street, former Mayor of the West Midlands. Andy reflected on his journey from business to politics, Birmingham’s evolving reputation, and the future of our region in today’s dynamic political climate.

The evening was filled with thought-provoking discussion around leadership, innovation and investment in the West Midlands, alongside the chance to network with fellow guests.

A huge thank you to our Chair, Joe Gaytten, for hosting the event, everyone who joined us - and of course to Andy for such an engaging and candid talk.

A special mention also to our photographer for the evening, Stuart James. We hope you enjoy some of his fantastic photos above.
