Eleanor Sands

CEO & Co-Founder

Having spent time in some of the world’s most iconic venues and experienced exceptional events throughout her career, Eleanor knows what“good” looks like, and more importantly feels like.

She brings that same standard to Wigmore Wednesdays - curating a community where every detail, from people to place, is carefully considered.

Just as importantly, she has a calm presence that makes people feel at ease and genuinely welcome - a principle that underpins every event.

Anabel Provansal

Co-Founder

Annabel has a strong ability to bring people together, with a focus on building long term, meaningful relationships.

She brings that intention to Wigmore Wednesdays - ensuring the community continues to grow with care, where every detail, from people to atmosphere, is carefully considered.

In equal measure, she plays a key role in maintaining the quality, balance, and energy that define each event - ensuring the community grows with purpose.

Our Story

It all started over dinner after MIPIM.

Founders Eleanor Sands and Anabel Provansal weren't talking about the conference itself. They were talking about everything that happened around it - the chance encounters, the introductions that couldn't have been planned, and the unique atmosphere created when the industry came together in places people genuinely wanted to spend time.

That evening sparked a simple idea: to create a regular meeting place where those same conversations and connections could continue throughout the year.

Today, Wigmore Wednesdays brings together senior professionals through thoughtfully curated gatherings across the UK, returning to the art of conversation and creating places where relationships naturally thrive.
