Michelle Moran, Business Development Director at the event’s organisers Conference
House, said:

> “The not for profit sector is under more public scrutiny than ever before, and
> is always under pressure to achieve more with less.
> “But there is also huge potential out there, with ever more sophisticated solutions
> and strategies emerging to help charities achieve the best for their beneficiaries,
> and association to do the same for their members. CHASE 2016 has been structured
> to celebrate those opportunities, and take a fresh, thought provoking look at 
> how we as a sector can maximise them.”
