Bookings open for IoF National Convention 2014
Howard Lake | 8 February 2014 | News
The Institute of Fundraising has announced its 2014 National Convention will take place from 7-9 July 2014 at the Hilton London Metropole. This year’s theme is “Proud to be a fundraiser”.
The three-day event offers 11 specialist tracks, an Institute of Fundraising track, daily breakfast speed networking sessions, Petcha Kutcha sessions, and one-to-one career meetings with senior fundraisers.
For the first time the Convention will feature full-day masterclasses. There is also a return for the Pitch Perfect session, where four charities compete to deliver the winning pitch but with the twist of doing so on behalf of another cause.
Over 2,500 delegates are expected this year. The Convention has been Europe’s biggest conference for fundraisers for some years.
Plenary speakers
This year’s plenary speakers include CEO of Cancer Research UK, Harpal S Kumar and entrepreneur, writer and broadcaster Loyd Grossman.
Booking
Bookings for National Convention are now open. The Institute is keeping the price for its three-day relay passes for Institute Organisational members at the same level as 2013.
There are other discounts available, including on group bookings, until 25 April.
