We’re delighted to announce the programme for the Pinsent Masons’ 2024 Restructuring and Insolvency Conference.

Established as the market leader and on the calendar for over 30 years, our event last year was the best attended Restructuring and Insolvency conference in Europe in 2023. It was great to see over 400 restructuring professionals, including IPs bankers, funds, surveyors and turnaround professionals from over 150 organisations, and we hope this year's conference will be our best yet!

We offer a comprehensive programme of interesting, thought-provoking presentations and debate, to be held in London’s finest conference venue, The Brewery, in the City of London.

Highlights

Easily accessible by all forms of transport, we offer quite simply the best food and drink package of any restructuring and insolvency conference anywhere. As well as our conference bringing you a detailed and excellent programme, we also offer a comprehensive hospitality package on the day. Our hospitality includes:

  • light breakfast on arrival;
  • four course silver service lunch with wine;
  • morning coffee with snacks; and
  • an informal drinks reception to conclude
