You will learn from industry experts, explore new opportunities, and network in a vibrant setting.
The annual LLG Spring Conference offers the best of both worlds! Day one, taking place on 6 June, is open to both in-person and remote attendance. This full-day conference programme is packed with informative plenary sessions, giving you the opportunity to learn from industry experts and engage with colleagues from all areas of local government law. In-person attendees will also have the chance to book a place on one or more of the breakout programme sessions and explore the LLG’s corporate partners exhibition stands and network with fellow professionals. Plus, you won't want to miss the informal dinner taking place at The Bristol Hotel.
Day two, taking place the following week, will be fully remote via the Zoom conference platform. Although plenary sessions only will be offered on this day, you will still have the chance to connect with other attendees and gain valuable insights into the issues surrounding governance and ways to improve governance in practice.
