About the conference

The public services environment has transformed in the past two years. And it keeps evolving - fast.

As a result, adaptability, resilience and intuitive strategic thinking have become the new crucial skills for public sector leaders.

This year’s CIPFA annual conference will focus on these skills and the knowledge you will need to make sure you and your organisation are fit to take on the challenges ahead.

On the main stage, world-class speakers will provide insight into leadership and strategic thinking. Commentators and thought-leaders will explore new thinking from across the public sector. And leading professionals from the breadth of the public services will share their knowledge in a series of practical workshops.

If you manage public money or public services, join us in Liverpool and make sure you’re at your fittest for the public service evolution.
