Business Strategy
Review and 2023 Programme Launch
We will conclude our 2022 programme with a review of the past year and an informed assessment of what 2023 might have in store.
It will be a busy year politically as both the US and the UK gear up for elections while the economic and social shifts continue to present challenges and opportunities for businesses.
This will be a time to take stock and to look ahead. Our guest speaker will provide us with what we hope will be a less dramatic analysis of the year past, and a more upbeat set of clues for the year to come. This highly enjoyable and thought-provoking dinner event will also see the launch of the PARC 2023 Programme.
Speaker
