Room151’s FDs’ Summit is our annual gathering of section 151 officers and their deputies from across UK local authorities. Previously run alongside our treasurers’ investment forum, the event has now grown into a standalone conference and attracts a commercially minded, and senior group of 80-100 council finance directors each year.
The event has been sponsored for three years running by PFM, the managed service provider of the UK Municipal Bonds Agency who continue to support the conference as lead sponsor in 2021. The agenda, built in consultation with finance directors from a wide range of authorities covers topical, commercial themes, ranging from capital finance and housing and regeneration to funding solutions, commercialisation and the general state of the sector’s finances.
The one-day event offers a standout and valuable opportunity where the typical ratio of public to private sector delegates in the room is around 3:1. For companies wishing to deepen relationships with s151s and better understand their challenges, it is regarded as one of the best events of its kind in the calendar.
