The Business Forum uses a variety of meeting formats, depending upon the subject and on the style of the speakers or experts. Sometimes less than a dozen decision makers having lunch with an expert can produce much more than a large meeting, whereas for subjects of immediate import to all of our members, where a series of experts addressing the subject better suits the needs of our members and guests, we may well invite more than a hundred executives to attend.

The luncheon will always be a three course formal affair, beginning with a salad, followed by a main course of either chicken or fish and ending with a Business Forum signature desert which according to Rule number 5 of The Business Forum Charter shall be "very rich and preferably chocolate". Vegetarian meals and special dietary requirements can be served, provided they are requested no less than 72 hours before the event.
