Brand to Scale Roundtable
One table. One morning. An honest look at your brand as the business grows.
The Brand to Scale Roundtable brings 12 to 15 founders and MDs together with Jess Morgan for a working breakfast in Cardiff. No pitches, no slides to sit through: a frank conversation about the point where a business outgrows its brand, and a clear picture of where yours stands.
Next date
Thursday 3 December 2026
8:00 to 10:30 · Cardiff, venue to be confirmed
Who it's for
Founders and MDs of established businesses
Roughly £500k to £15M turnover, across South Wales and the South West. Professional services firms and charities are welcome.
It isn't designed for sole traders or businesses at the very start. If that's you, we'll happily point you to something that fits better.
It's for you if:
- the business has grown, but the way it presents itself hasn't kept up;
- you suspect good work is going unnoticed because the brand doesn't explain it;
- you're too close to the business to see what others see.
The morning
- 8:00Coffee and breakfast
- 8:20Round the table: who you are, and the one growth question on your mind
- 8:40Jess on why a brand stops keeping up with the business, and what that costs (20 minutes)
- 9:00Discussion, led by Jess, built around the questions from the table
- 9:45Your own one-page brand and growth check
- 10:05What we heard, and what to do with it
- 10:15Time to talk. Away by 10:30
What you'll leave with
- A one-page brand and growth check, filled in for your business.
- The questions from the table that apply to you, written down.
- A dozen people at the same stage, in the same region.
- If you want it, a 30-minute call with Jess afterwards to go through your check.
Your host
Jess Morgan is co-founder and Strategy Director of Alchemy Branding Studio and host of Brand to Scale, the podcast about building brands that grow with the business. She works as a strategic partner to SME leadership teams, helping them see their brand clearly and put it to work across the business.
At the Roundtable, Jess leads the conversation and keeps it practical. You'll talk more than you listen.
“We weren't looking for ‘just a logo’ or a marketing exercise. Jess took the time to truly understand our business, our culture, our values and our long-term vision before putting pen to paper.”
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. There's no charge and nothing to buy on the day. Seats are limited, so we ask a few questions first to make sure the table works for everyone.
Is this a sales event?
No. There's no pitch. If you'd like to carry on the conversation afterwards, you can book a call with Jess. Most people come for the conversation and the people round the table.
How is this different from Alchemy's Brand & Growth Workshop?
The workshop is a paid, in-depth session for one leadership team. The Roundtable is a free morning with other founders, a chance to step back and see your brand from the outside.
Who else will be there?
Founders and MDs of established businesses across South Wales and the South West. We keep the table small and mixed, and avoid seating direct competitors together.
Can I bring a colleague?
Seats are one per business so the table stays balanced. If a co-founder would get more from it than you, tell us when you request your seat.
What if I can't make it after booking?
Let us know as soon as you can and we'll offer your seat to someone on the waiting list.
Will there be other dates?
Yes. The Roundtable runs every quarter, starting in Cardiff, with Bristol next. Request a seat and we'll tell you about future dates.
Is it accessible, and can you cater for my diet?
We'll share the venue's access details when we confirm your seat. Tell us about any dietary or access needs in the form.
