LGPS Private Markets Forum
Postponed – new date TBA
It is with much regret that we have made the difficult decision to postpone the LGPS Private Markets Forum due to be held on 22 June at the Ironmongers’ Hall. It has become increasingly clear that although there is no rail strike on 22 June, the impact of the strike on 21 June means there will be major disruption that will prevent many speakers and attendees from arriving at the event at all or in a timely fashion. We remain committed to running the event and this page will be updated with new information by the 24th of June.
