More than 60 local employers to inspire the next generation at The Wing on 3 December
Brighton & Hove’s flagship careers inspiration event, Hello Future 2026, will return to The Wing on Thursday 3 December, bringing together young people and employers from across the region for a day dedicated to opportunity, ambition and future careers.
Delivered by the West Sussex, Brighton & Hove Careers Hub and Brighton Chamber, Hello Future is designed to help young people aged 16-24 explore career pathways, discover opportunities available on their doorstep and gain valuable insights from local employers and professionals.
With the world of work evolving rapidly, many young people face increasing challenges when entering employment. Hello Future aims to bridge that gap by creating meaningful conversations between young people and businesses, helping attendees understand the skills, experiences and pathways that can lead to rewarding careers.
More than 60 organisations from across a diverse range of sectors are expected to take part, including businesses from the creative, technology, professional services, charity and entrepreneurial communities. Participants will have the opportunity to meet employers, discuss career journeys and learn about the wide range of roles available in the local economy.
The event will welcome students from local secondary schools and colleges, alongside young people seeking employment, education or training opportunities. By highlighting the breadth of careers available across Brighton & Hove and Sussex, organisers hope to inspire confidence and optimism about the future.
A spokesperson for Brighton Chamber said:
“Hello Future is about giving young people access to real conversations with real employers. Sometimes a single discussion can open someone’s eyes to opportunities they didn’t know existed and help them take their first step towards a meaningful career. We’re delighted to be bringing the event back for 2026 with the support of our partners and sponsors.”
Hello Future 2026 is delivered by the West Sussex, Brighton & Hove Careers Hub and Brighton Chamber.
The event’s headline sponsor is Brighton & Hove City Council, supported by Shoreham Port, Rampion Offshore Wind Farm, Amadeus and the Enjoolata Foundation.
