Chief Wine Officer

Chief Wine Officer Unique events for inspiring and entertaining business leaders

OUR STORY
The first Chief Wine Officer evening was in September 2005 in London – attended by senior executives from the major financial services firms. We now organise over 50 events per year across over a dozen cities and many different industries – with a range of formats to suit all business development & networking requirements. The company is part of the Chief Nation group, and is staffed by

consultants and event professionals who understand the principles on which the company was founded: connecting business and relationship building, with the pleasure of fine wine. Sponsored and co-hosted by clients ranging from multi-national corporates to niche organisations, Chief Wine Officer events have informed and entertained more than 5,000 senior decision-makers from many of the UK, Europe and US’s largest companies.

As we wrap up our celebration of Chief Wine Officer's 20th year, we thought we'd commemorate the milestone with a timeline of the many achievements we've shared along the way.

What started with one event and a dream in London has grown into the premier B2B networking event offering in the US, UK, and Western Europe, and East Asia.

Take a look at the timeline here: https://www.chiefwineofficer.com/cwodigital/20-years-of-cwo/

Just because we've spent the last 20 years making memories, doesn't mean we're going to recount them perfectly.

Last week, the Big Apple played host to our multi-sponsor CWO Society Dinner for FSI Leaders.

What 🍾 A 🍾 Night! 🍾

We welcomed 40+ executives from the world of finance, banking, and insurance to the five-star Virgin Hotels NYC, for an evening of peer networking, gourmet dining, and of course; our world-famous wine tasting experience.

We can't wait to return to NYC next year for another Society Dinner, and we hope to see you there.

🍾 We're back with more of our favourite memories from 20 years in the biz! 🍾

This time, it's the Chief Wine Officer staff themselves—The ones who make it all happen behind the scenes.

Together, we've reached countless milestones, enjoyed many (many) socials, and raised some money for charity along the way. All worth reminiscing about.
