We are thrilled to present to you an exciting line-up of speakers, sessions, and events. This conference aims to bring together experts, thought leaders, and enthusiasts from various fields to foster a vibrant exchange of ideas, explore emerging trends, and address key challenges in our ever-evolving world.
This year, we want to maximise your potential CPD hours, so have replaced UnSessions with topics from our incredible call-for-speaker submissions - every breakout is now eligible for CPD! A fillable PDF booklet is available now, and a few printed CPD booklets will be available at the conference.
