Each Alliance brings together leaders based on geographical focus or specialised knowledge aligned with Anthropy's core goals of sustainability, equity, and prosperity.

Anthropy also has regional Alliances, whose focus is to look at what is happening nationally through the lens of their own region. The chairs have been appointed for three regions:

-South West: Paul Edwards, Managing Director for Lombard and Specialist Businesses at NatWest

Each Alliance will design two flagship sessions for the Anthropy25 leadership summit, held annually at the Eden Project in Cornwall. Between 26-28 March 2025, Anthropy25 will bring together 2,000+ thought leaders and decision-makers from across the UK to work towards a better Britain. With over 200 sessions led by more than 600 speakers, the event will span three days and take over the entire Eden Project site. With 15+ live stages running simultaneously throughout the summit, attendees will engage in diverse conversations addressing a wide array of critical topics, and the intersection between them, thus breaking down silos.

Anthropy Founder and Chairman, John O'Brien MBE, formerly EMEA managing partner of Omnicom's ONE HUNDRED consortium explained,“These Alliances present a significant opportunity for collaborative leadership to shape our national agenda and are essential for framing our national gathering agenda. The strength of our agenda comes from our collaborative alliance groups, and others who apply to develop the themes and sessions. We are thrilled to have these exceptional leaders on board, whose contributions will undoubtedly inspire the pursuit of a better Britain.”
