What to Expect

The R3 Northern Forum returns to Crow Wood Hotel in Burnley for a day exploring the major issues facing the profession and the northern economy.

With insolvency and restructuring professionals playing a vital role in responding to financial distress and economic fallout, the forum offers an opportunity to discuss the challenges facing northern businesses and to debate the profession’s response.

The event also provides plenty of opportunity to reconnect with colleagues and make new contacts through a packed day of topical sessions.

Your ticket includes the gala dinner on 13 September, featuring a welcome drinks reception followed by a three-course dinner.
