Speakers and Presentations
Between April 2014 and March 2015 iNetwork held 49 events for 1,509 attendees with 160 expert speakers which shared local practice and thinking, national policy updates, offers of support and industry expertise
For iNetwork these events are a key means of sharing research into good practice and creating space for “warts and all discussion” on commonly understood priorities.
In addition to the events with expert speakers iNetwork has developed an effective roundtable format to drill down into single issue topics in small groups – the aim being to leave the room with an answer.
The subjects for these are driven by the membership contacting the partnership office but tend to be focussed on iNetwork priorities in each year.
Below are the speakers who very kindly gave up their time to present at iNetwork events in 2014-15. If they used slides they will be on the Knowledge Hub.
If you cant find what you’re looking for please contact the iNetwork team.
