Business Lunch


As part of our careers and mentoring programme, last year we launched a new initiative for Shiplake CONNECTED, the Business Lunch.

These panel style events run once a term and are maximum of 1 hour in person in the lecture theatre or online via livestream – designed to be consumed in your lunch hour. Those who attend in person are provided with lunch to enjoy while listening to our panellists discuss their careers in a specific industry – how they got started and what pearls of wisdom they can impart to those interested in a career in that industry. The Business Lunch is open to the whole Shiplake College community - pupils, parents, staff and Old Vikings.

All our Business Lunches are recorded and you can find the recording of each Business Lunch below.
