Focused Seminar Programme: in response to the need for information and debate, a ‘pop-up seminar’ on the implications of the Brexit decision, was quickly organised for the 30th June. Selling out within an hour of publicising, we moved the seminar to a larger venue and soon attracted over 200 delegates. The slides are available here. A podcast of the event will be posted soon.
Our Procurement Law barristers have also rallied to the demand from clients and contacts to hear and explore more and there is an evening seminar on the 13th July looking at Procurement Futures: what lies ahead for procurement law? What will be the effects on future plans and challenges? To book a place, please click here.
