A globally recognised technology leader with over 26 years at the intersection of technology and financial services. The driving force behind GnT.

After more than two decades building relationships across the financial services landscape, George observed something that many in the industry already knew but few acted upon: the most valuable business relationships are not forged in conference halls or over formal dinners. They happen naturally, over drinks, in relaxed settings where people can be themselves.
GnT was born from this insight. The name is a nod to the classic Gin & Tonic — the drink of choice at our events — but it represents something deeper: Genuine networking over Trust. Every month, George brings together a carefully curated group of senior professionals from across the financial services spectrum for an evening of meaningful connection.
What makes GnT different is the cross-selling focus. Every attendee is both a potential client and a potential referral source. Fund managers meet the service providers who can help them grow. Technology leaders connect with the firms who need their solutions. And everyone benefits from the introductions that only 26 years of relationship-building can provide.
Sponsored by leading service providers to the industry, GnT events are held in premium venues across London's financial district. The drinks are complimentary, the company is exceptional, and the business opportunities are genuine.
