The emPOWER Breakfast Announces 2026 Sponsors
The emPOWER Breakfast has revealed the organisations supporting its 2026 programme, a collective of partners who believe deeply in connection, creativity and positive change across the advertising, media and communications industries.
As the community continues to grow, these partnerships enable honest conversation, shared learning and the creation of spaces where people feel seen, heard and supported. The 2026 sponsor line-up brings together both long-standing supporters and new collaborators, each contributing their own expertise, care and commitment to the emPOWER mission.
Welcoming New Sponsors for 2026
Among the new partners joining emPOWER this year is Sky Women’s Network as Silver Sponsors, supported by Sky Creative. The emPOWER team extends a huge thank you to EP Liz Arnott whose leadership and advocacy were instrumental in bringing this partnership to life and to senior producer Kelly Casanova and former Sky creative director Cat Hutton, supported by exec producer Liz Arnott, who founded the initiative which champions women across the Sky Creative Network and the wider Sky business, with strong roots in advertising, production and the creative industries. Built on advocacy, opportunity and meaningful connection, Sky Women’s Network plays an important role in strengthening links between in-house teams and the wider creative community.
