Annual Events

Every year we hold an in-person, virtual or hybrid event, where our members and the wider savings and investment industry come together to network, share practical information and discuss important D&I topics.

A wealth of essential D&I content is produced in support of Diversity Project events throughout the year. Have a browse, find what’s most relevant to your diversity agenda and feel free to share within your organisation. If you’d like to recommend a keynote speaker or suggest a topic you’d like to see addressed at our next annual event, please let us know at [email protected]
