Audience gathered for a live evening talk

About the evening

An evening for the long-game builders.

Fast wins get the applause; slow work gets the legacy. This live evening is for founders, makers and leaders choosing craft over speed — and wondering if patience still pays.

Marlow brings stories from leaders who played the long game: the founder who turned down the quick exit, the executive who rebuilt culture one conversation at a time, and the artist who shipped for a decade before anyone noticed.

Expect an hour-long talk, a facilitated audience conversation, and a book signing afterwards. Doors open at 18:30; the talk begins at 19:00 sharp.
