The MNDF Business Club was launched in 2023 to bring together businesses from across the UK for engaging conversations, meaningful networking, and to support the mission of the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. Since its inception, the Club has welcomed a growing community of leaders and organisations, alongside special guests from business, sport, the armed forces and medical science, creating a unique forum for insight, inspiration and connection.

Now entering its fourth year, the Business Club continues to expand. In 2025 the programme grew to include new venues and regions, featuring dynamic, interactive discussions with industry leaders. To date, more than 100 businesses have attended events across the UK, and the network continues to grow as more organisations join in support of the Foundation.

In 2026, the programme will feature three events, two in Edinburgh and one in London, each offering the opportunity to connect with like-minded organisations while hearing from an influential panel of speakers drawn from the worlds of business, sport, science and beyond. Previous panellists have included figures such as rugby stars Finn Russell, Sione Tuipulotu, and Henry Pollock alongside business leaders Martin Gilbert (Founder of Aberdeen Asset Management), Simon Morris (Founder of Amazon Prime Video), Rob Johnson (Director of Digital at The Hundred), and more.

Each event follows a similar format, combining high-quality panel discussions with excellent networking opportunities, while raising funds and awareness for the Foundation’s work. The 2026 series will also reflect the Foundation’s core pillars while exploring themes such as courage and inspirational leadership, integrity and disruption, overcoming adversity to create success, appetite for innovation, and motivating high performance.
