Live connections: Some shots from Spear’s 500 Live 2025

Bright sparks from the private wealth and family office ecosystem headed to The Savoy in May for Spear's 500 Live

More than 500 guests gathered at The Savoy in London in early May, for the 2025 edition of Spear’s 500 Live, the premier live event for private client professionals.

Sessions included panel discussions on the future of luxury, the rise of Miami as a destination for super-prime buyers, and how bespoke screening technology can contribute to increasing ‘healthspan’ for wealthy clients.

The day was rounded off by an interview with Sir Robin Niblett, the former director of Chatham House, who spoke about the risks posed as the US steps back from its role as a global rule maker.
