• How can you remain inspired in an era of fresh innovation, and push past the turmoil? 
• How can you leverage technology for post-COVID resilience, paving the way for sustainable growth and customer trust?
• What are the best practices for retaining top talent and ensuring a healthy work life balance? 

Following the panel discussion, you will get the chance to join a small group of your peers to address a question put to you by the speakers. A great opportunity to collaborate and share ideas. 

Pick a roundtable that you’d like to join, learn from the roundtable host whilst also deliberating on questions and points that you want to make to the discussion. This is a perfect way to gain vital first-hand knowledge of changes in the industry, whilst enjoying a bottle/glass of something alcoholic.
