The Turf Business Summit campaign for 2026 officially got underway on 26th May with the first of two Focus Groups.
On the backdrop of one of the UK’s most prestigious golf courses, on the hottest day of the year, the event brought together industry professionals from all sectors of turfcare to determine the most important issues facing the industry.
The workshop allowed attendees to discuss current issues facing the turfcare industry, as well as raise any problems they foresee impacting their roles in the future. Discussions involved industry subjects that have been covered in previous Turf Business events, as well as bringing new issues to the forefront.
Alongside the industry discussions attendees took part in a tour of The Grove’s golf facilities, including the new state of the art The Kingdom, which includes a dedicated putting studio and new driving range and short game.
The results and discussion points collected at this Focus Group will be combined with the results of the second Focus Group and the State of the Nation survey to create the most relevant and up to date agenda for the Turf Business Summit.
Turf Business would like to extend their thanks to Sam Reid and The Grove for facilitating the event, and taking the time for such a well guided facilities tour. As well as the event sponsors, whos continued support makes these events possible, working towards an improved industry for all those within it.
