Excellence unleashed
Professional Services is a powerhouse of the UK economy, contributing over 11% of GDP and 15% of the workforce. It was designated one of eight ‘growth driving’ sectors in the recent industrial strategy green paper. Professional services are instrumental in driving growth in the UK economy, according to the Office for National Statistics. Building on this success, the inaugural Professional Services Growth Summit helps leaders develop and implement coherent growth strategies.

Invitations are extended to 13 sub-sectors with quotas to allow delegates to mix with peers from outside their usual silos.
In-person networking
An invite-only event, the Summit brings together C-Suite members from mainly mid-market professional services firms (100 to 2,000 headcount) from across the UK for a black-tie dinner, awards ceremony and full-day conference. There are no sponsors or exhibitors to maintain focus on the growth agenda.
Awards ceremony

Through a mix of keynotes, live show, case studies, panel discussions, and interactive break-out workshops, delegates will hear ideas on optimal and original ways to grow a professional services firm from experts and peers.
