Discussion Groups
One of the sessions during the conference will see delegates split into smaller groups, with a choice of 12 distinct breakout sessions running in parallel. Delegates will participate in one discussion group, enabling them to explore a topic most relevant to them in a more focused setting.
When registering, please select both a first and second choice session to help us manage group sizes and ensure everyone can participate in a session of interest. Your assigned group will be displayed on the day in the LawNet Conference App.
