Celebrate the 2026 Strategic PA Network Awards Together
The Strategic PA Network Awards are the highlight of our year, a chance to recognise, celebrate and shine a spotlight on the incredible talent, dedication and impact within our profession.
Before the main awards ceremony, we’d love for you to join us at one, or more, of our exclusive Pre-Award Celebrations. These events are all about bringing our amazing community together to celebrate everyone who has been nominated, as well as those who have been selected as finalists in the 2026 Strategic PA Network Awards.
Whether you’re joining us online or in person, these celebrations are an opportunity to connect with fellow executive support professionals, congratulate this year’s nominees and finalists, and enjoy an evening of conversation, laughter and networking in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
We’ll also be joined by some of our trusted partners, including our Platinum Award Sponsors, alongside members of our judging panel. It will be a wonderful opportunity to meet the people who help make the Strategic PA Network Awards so special, whilst taking the time to celebrate together before the big night.

Strategic PA Network is a thriving professional community established in 2015, dedicated to connecting, developing and championing Executive Assistants, Personal Assistants, Chiefs of Staff, Virtual Assistants and Business Support Professionals across London, the South East and the UK. Through a diverse programme of networking events, learning and development opportunities, mentoring and industry partnerships, the Network provides a welcoming and inclusive environment where professionals can build meaningful relationships, share best practice, learn from thought leaders and inspire one another. Founded on the belief that no assistant should ever stand alone, Strategic PA Network is passionate about elevating the profession, empowering individuals to realise their full potential and creating a collaborative community where assistants can connect, grow and thrive together.
Set in a townhouse dating from the 1740s with a history of royal owners, this refined, traditional hotel is 0.3 miles from Green Park station and 0.5 miles from Hyde Park.
The plush, individually decorated rooms feature air-conditioning and tea and coffeemaking facilities, plus free Wi-Fi and cable TV. Suites add 4-poster beds, iPod docks and evening canapes. Room service is offered 24/7.
Amenities include a colourful restaurant, an informal conservatory serving afternoon tea, a terrace bar, and a wine room. Meeting and event facilities are available.
Strategic PA Network is an active, professional networking group for Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants, Virtual Assistants, Administrators, and Office Managers. Whether based in the UK or around the world, we are proudly all-inclusive and not county-specific; anyone is welcome to attend our events and be part of our thriving community.
Over the past ten years, we have organically grown into a supportive and empowering network where Assistants come together to learn, connect, and grow. Our mission is to provide a credible platform that encourages industry awareness, meaningful connections, and shared best practices.
Learning and development are at the core of everything we do, with our events exploring essential topics that bring value, spark insight, and deliver revelatory moments.
At Strategic PA Network, we believe in the power of community - lifting each other up, celebrating every success, and inspiring Assistance to reach their full potential.
