Panel Discussions

This year we have a dedicated theatre for panel discussions, where every hour a panel of experts will explore different business topics. They will cover present and future challenges, offering a chance for you to interact and ask questions.

These topics will be the same for both days of the show, however the experts will be different. You can find more details on the subjects up for discussion and the experts taking part in each debate closer to the show.

When the discussions take place, make sure you arrive at the theatre as early as possible, as the unique education, insight, and guidance on offer always attracts a lot of interest, so seats go quickly!
