HESPA 2016 Annual Conference – today and tomorrow

“What have universities ever done for us? Evidencing the universal benefits of higher education,” the latest Higher Education Strategic Planners Association (HESPA) Annual Conference, will host approximately 200 delegates, planners and balanced combination of other HE colleagues, agency and sector body staff and business partners. The programme will run similarly to last year with a mixture of plenary and breakout sessions, with each day opened by a plenary panel session, offering a broader insight of mixed views.

Speakers include Nicola Dandridge, chief executive of Universities UK; National Union of Students head of policy Victoria Lowry and GlaxoSmithKline head of pre-competitive collaboration Dr Clive Badman OBE as well as vice-chancellors and heads of planning from a range of institutions.

Sessions include the Breakfast Beeline – an opportunity to informally discuss relevant topics related to HE planning over breakfast on Friday morning – and sponsor demos to delegates at lunchtime.

Cost: £395 (including all sessions, refreshments, lunch, dinner and overnight accommodation on Thursday 11th).
