Know and grow your worth
Bristol | 12th October 2026 | 12.30pm–7.30pm | 4 hours' CPD
If you’re thinking about an eventual exit, planning for growth, bringing in new partners or simply building a stronger business for the long term, understanding what drives value can help you make better decisions.
At Game Changers LIVE, experts from Pathfinders, Thrings and TaxGem will look at the financial, legal and human factors that can affect the value of an advice business.
Hosted by Parmenion’s Chief Transformation Officer Chris Larkin, alongside CEO Martin Jennings and other industry specialists, the afternoon will give you fresh perspectives and ideas to take back to your own business.
You’ll explore:
- What really drives the value of an advice business – and what can reduce it
- How to assess where your business stands today using a practical valuation framework
- Ways to build a stronger, more sustainable firm
- Legal and tax considerations around ownership, succession and selling your business
- Succession planning and the personal side of stepping away from a business
- Actions you can take now to build long-term value and resilience

Why We The Curious?
Game Changers is about celebrating the people, ideas and influences shaping the future of financial planning. For our first live event, we wanted a venue that reflects this energy.
We The Curious is built around discovery, challenging the status quo and inspiring the curiosity that helps us make better decisions. It’s the perfect setting for an afternoon focused on rethinking what’s possible in your advice business with new perspectives and ideas that can genuinely change the game.
The bigger picture
You’ll be inside Bristol’s iconic silver dome, with exclusive use of the venue – including a private planetarium show taking you from Bristol to the furthest reaches of space. It’s a chance to step back, look beyond today’s horizon and see the bigger picture.
Bringing advisers together on our home turf, in one of Bristol’s most recognisable landmarks, feels fitting. It reflects the curiosity, ambition and spirit of innovation that have helped shape Parmenion for almost two decades.
See where the evening takes you
After hours, we'll stay on for food, drinks and networking in We The Curious' interactive exhibition.
Whether you're challenging a robot, turning invisible or simply enjoying a drink, it's a chance to exchange ideas with peers and catch up with the Parmenion team.
