Events and Training
Stay up-to-date with the developments that impact your business through our range of conferences, seminars, training and webinars.
Show meEstablished as the market leader and on the calendar for over 30 years, our last event was the best attended Restructuring and Insolvency conference in Europe in 2024.
We were pleased to be joined face to face again by over 350 restructuring professionals, including IPs, bankers, funds, surveyors and turnaround professionals from over 100 organisations. As the UK and global economies grapple with uncertainty and disruption, the need for restructuring, turnaround or insolvency specialists continues to increase. Our conference is once again best placed to provide you with a full day of comprehensive legal and practical knowhow, as well fantastic hospitality and market leading networking opportunities.
We’re aiming for our 2025 conference to be the best yet – with a range of experts from Pinsent Masons’ team and guest speakers who are each renowned in their profession.
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
