Join us for a virtual ‘Lunch and Learn’ session on 15 September with Patricia Brown, Director of Central, and founder of London 3.0, an initiative that seeks to explore and re-imagine what good looks like for London as we move forward.

Patricia runs Central, a niche consultancy advising civic and business leaders on urban change. She has over 25 years of direct experience thinking about, influencing and improving London. She has been at the heart of many of the initiatives that have been part of the city’s successful evolution, including the establishment of the Business Improvement District model in the UK, the pedestrianisation of Trafalgar Square and the capital’s wayfinding system, Legible London.

In the mid-1990s she worked alongside real estate guru Honor Chapman in helping to establish London’s first inward investment body, promoting London as a premier business destination. She became CEO of the Central London Partnership in 1997, leading a cross-sector partnership and agenda set on maintaining the capital’s position as a global world city. At CLP, she led much of the early work to achieve this sustained success through ensuring it was a city that people wanted to be in; a people-focused, liveable city, with improved quality of life and built environment.
