Nine Focused Breakouts
Nine Focused Breakouts
We’re planning different breakout sessions during the day and the timetable here might change slightly – but the plan is that you pick what most interests you and we will have each session recorded, so anything you miss you can access later. All sessions will bring together experts who will open up discussion and debate
